Objective: This study was performed to compare the incidence of Angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) between intravenous and intraperitoneal injection of AAV8.mPCSK9 in wild-type (WT) mice with C57BL/6J background and the pathological differences of above model in WT and ApoE mice.

Design: Male WT mice were injected intraperitoneally or intravenously with either a AAV8.

VSMC-specific TRPC1 deletion attenuates angiotensin II-induced hypertension and cardiovascular remodeling.

Article Synopsis
  • TRPC1 is a ion channel linked to cardiovascular issues, with increased expression observed in both treated vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and aortas of hypertensive mice.
  • Lack of TRPC1 in VSMCs significantly reduces AngII-induced effects like vasoconstriction, hypertension, and heart changes, indicating its crucial role in these processes.
  • The study identifies the EZH2-TRPC1-MEK/ERK pathway as a significant contributor to hypertension, suggesting that targeting TRPC1 or EZH2 could be effective in treating high blood pressure and related cardiovascular problems.

Department of Pharmacology, Cardiac & Cerebral Vascular Research Center, Zhongshan School of Medicine, Sun Yat-Sen University, Guangzhou 510080, China. Electronic address:

Aims: Impairment of nitric oxide (NO) production is a major cause of endothelial dysfunction and hypertension. ClC-5 Cl channel is abundantly expressed in the vascular endothelium. However, it remains unclear how it regulates endothelial function.

Background: The role of 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin-D3 (VitD) and sirtuin-1 (SIRT1) in mitigating pathological cardiac remodeling is well recognized. However, the potential for SIRT1 to mediate the inhibitory effects of VitD on angiotensin II (Ang II) -induced hypertrophy in H9c2 cardiomyoblasts remains unclear.

Methods: H9c2 cardiomyoblasts were exposed to Ang II or a combination of VitD and Ang II, both in the absence and presence of SIRT1-specific siRNA.

Background: Astragalus mongholicus (AM) and Salvia miltiorrhiza (SM) are commonly used in traditional Chinese medicine to treat heart failure (HF). Ferroptosis has been studied as a key factor in the occurrence of HF. It remains unclear whether the combined use of AM and SM can effectively improve HF and the underlying mechanisms.
