Substrate stiffening promotes VEGF-A functions via the PI3K/Akt/mTOR pathway

Amjad Husain et al.

Summary: The study reveals the underlying role of the PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling pathway in regulating vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) mediated signaling and functions. The pathway is activated on stiffer substrates, amplified by VEGF-A stimulation, and correlated with enhanced endothelial cell (EC) proliferation, contraction, pro-angiogenic secretion, and capillary-like tube formation. These findings have important implications for understanding age-related macular degeneration and provide insight into potential therapeutic pathways.

The Role of Circulating Biomarkers in Peripheral Arterial Disease

Goren Saenz-Pipaon et al.

Summary: Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) of the lower extremities is a chronic illness predominantly caused by atherosclerosis and associated with traditional cardiovascular risk factors. It is highly prevalent in subjects over 65 years old and is expected to increase significantly with the aging population, posing a severe socioeconomic issue in the future. Poor prognosis of PAD may lead to impaired walking function and increased risk of cardiovascular events. Reliable biomarkers and machine learning methods have the potential to improve identification and personalized treatment of PAD patients.

Insulin's actions on vascular tissues: Physiological effects and pathophysiological contributions to vascular complications of diabetes

Jialin Fu et al.

Summary: This review provides a comprehensive summary of insulin's physiological and pathophysiological actions, as well as the associated signaling pathways in vascular cells, particularly in endothelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells. Insulin plays important roles in regulating nutrient transport and communication in vascular cells through its receptors and signaling cascades, affecting systemic fuel metabolism and energetics. Targeted therapies to improve selective insulin resistance in endothelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells are necessary to mitigate pathological processes such as endothelial dysfunction, atherosclerosis, and myocardial dysfunction.

Summary: The alternate splicing of VEGF-A produces pro- and anti-angiogenic isoforms, offering new therapeutic opportunities for PAD treatment. Understanding these isoforms may lead to novel signaling pathways that enhance future therapeutics in PAD. Inhibiting specific anti-angiogenic VEGF-A isoforms has shown promising results in promoting perfusion recovery in PAD.
