Journal ArticleDOI

NLRP3 inflammasome activation contributes to VSMC phenotypic transformation and proliferation in hypertension.

TL;DR: Results indicate that NLRP3 inflammasome activation response to histone acetylation and NFκB activation contributes to VSMC phenotype switching and proliferation and vascular remodeling in hypertension.
Journal ArticleDOI

FNDC5 Alleviates Hepatosteatosis by Restoring AMPK/mTOR-Mediated Autophagy, Fatty Acid Oxidation and Lipogenesis in Mice.

TL;DR: It is indicated that FNDC5 deficiency impairs autophagy and FAO and enhances lipogenesis via the AMPK/mTOR pathway and prevents the HFD-induced hyperlipemia, hepatic lipid accumulation, and impairedFAO and Autophagy in the liver.
Journal ArticleDOI

Angiotensin-(1–7) abrogates angiotensin II-induced proliferation, migration and inflammation in VSMCs through inactivation of ROS-mediated PI3K/Akt and MAPK/ERK signaling pathways

TL;DR: Results indicate that Ang-(1–7) antagonizes the Ang II-induced VSMC proliferation, migration and inflammation through activation of Mas receptor and then suppression of ROS-dependent PI3K/Akt and MAPK/ERK signaling pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

NLRP3 Gene Deletion Attenuates Angiotensin II-Induced Phenotypic Transformation of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells and Vascular Remodeling.

TL;DR: NLRP3 inflammasome activation contributes to Ang II-induced VSMC phenotypic transformation and proliferation as well as vascular remodeling and hypertension.
