Abstract:
:The pathogenesis of atherosclerosis is a multifactorial process. A possible anti-atherosclerotic drug should therefore interfere with different targets that are important during the development of an atherosclerotic lesion. Two of the early events are the activated migration and proliferation of arterial smooth muscle cells. Here we investigated in several in vivo and in vitro experiments the effect of two nicotinic acid derivatives L44 and L44-0, on smooth muscle cell migration and proliferation. Balloon catheter de-endothelialization was used as an animal model for intimal lesion formation. Migration was subsequently quantified in vitro using the explant outgrowth technique. Subcultured smooth muscle and endothelial cells were used to test the effect of the drugs on proliferation. Time-lapse video microscopy was applied to differentiate between smooth muscle cell migration and proliferation on the level of individual cells. We showed that L44 and L44-0 are very effective in decreasing smooth muscle cell proliferation and migration. Endothelial cell proliferation, important to re-establish endothelial integrity was, however, not affected.
