Opposing roles of STAT-1 and STAT-3 in regulating vascular endothelial growth factor expression in vascular smooth muscle cells.

Abstract:

:Increased microvessel density in atherosclerotic plaques plays a major role in promoting plaque destabilization resulting in increased risk of stroke and myocardial infarction. Previously we have shown that expression of the inflammatory cytokine, Oncostatin-M (OSM), in human atherosclerotic plaques correlated with increased microvessel density, indicating a role for OSM in promoting plaque angiogenesis. The purpose of this study was to determine the mechanism by which OSM regulates Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor (VEGF) expression in human coronary artery smooth muscle cells. Using shRNA and overexpression studies, we have shown that the transcription factor, STAT-1 inhibited VEGF expression, while STAT-3 promoted the expression of VEGF. We further show that the mechanism by which STAT-1 and STAT-3 regulates VEGF expression is through modulation of Hypoxia Inducible Factor-1α (HIF-1α). STAT-1 suppresses HIF-1α expression, whereas STAT-3 positively regulates HIF-1α expression. These results provide evidence that activated STAT-1 and STAT-3 regulate VEGF expression indirectly, by modulating HIF-1α activity.
