Andrographolide Promotes Interaction Between Endothelin-Dependent EDNRA/EDNRB and Myocardin-SRF to Regulate Pathological Vascular Remodeling

IntroductionPathological vascular remodeling is a hallmark of various vascular diseases. Smooth muscle cell (SMC) phenotypic switching plays a pivotal role during pathological vascular remodeling. The mechanism of how to regulate SMC phenotypic switching still needs to be defined. This study aims to...

description IntroductionPathological vascular remodeling is a hallmark of various vascular diseases. Smooth muscle cell (SMC) phenotypic switching plays a pivotal role during pathological vascular remodeling. The mechanism of how to regulate SMC phenotypic switching still needs to be defined. This study aims to investigate the effect of Andrographolide, a key principle isolated from Andrographis paniculate, on pathological vascular remodeling and its underlying mechanism.MethodsA C57/BL6 mouse left carotid artery complete ligation model and rat SMCs were used to determine whether Andrographolide is critical in regulating SMC phenotypic switching. Quantitative real-time PCR, a CCK8 cell proliferation assay, BRDU incorporation assay, Boyden chamber migration assay, and spheroid sprouting assay were performed to evaluate whether Andrographolide suppresses SMC proliferation and migration. Immunohistochemistry staining, immunofluorescence staining, and protein co-immunoprecipitation were used to observe the interaction between EDNRA, EDNRB, and Myocardin-SRF.ResultsAndrographolide inhibits neointimal hyperplasia in the left carotid artery complete ligation model. Andrographolide regulates SMC phenotypic switching characterized by suppressing proliferation and migration. Andrographolide activates the endothelin signaling pathway exhibited by dramatically inducing EDNRA and EDNRB expression. The interaction between EDNRA/EDNRB and Myocardin-SRF resulted in promoting SMC differentiation marker gene expression.ConclusionAndrographolide plays a critical role in regulating pathological vascular remodeling.
