- W2015584527 abstract "Previously, we have demonstrated that STAT-5B plays a role in thrombin-induced vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) growth and motility. To learn more about the role of STAT-5B in vessel wall remodeling, we examined its involvement in platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB)-stimulated VSMC growth and motility and balloon injury-induced neointima formation. PDGF-BB activated STAT-5B as measured by its tyrosine phosphorylation, DNA binding, and reporter gene activity. PDGF-BB induced cyclin D1 expression, CDK4 activity, and Rb protein phosphorylation, leading to VSMC growth and motility, and these responses were suppressed by the blockade of STAT-5B. Increased cyclin D1 levels, CDK4 activity, and Rb protein phosphorylation were observed in 1-week balloon-injured arteries compared with uninjured arteries, and these responses were also suppressed by adenovirus-mediated expression of dnSTAT-5B. In addition, adenovirus-mediated expression of dnSTAT-5B attenuated balloon injury-induced smooth muscle cell migration from media to intima and their proliferation in intima, resulting in reduced neointima formation. These observations indicate that STAT-5B plays an important role in PDGF-BB-induced VSMC growth and motility in vitro and balloon injury-induced neointima formation in vivo.

Here, we report for the first time that PDGF-BB stimulates STAT-5B activation leading to induction of cyclin D1 expression, CDK4 activity, and Rb protein phosphorylation in VSMCs and thereby the growth and motility of these cells. In addition, increases in cyclin D1 levels, CDK4 activity, Rb protein phosphorylation, smooth muscle cell (SMC) migration from media to intima, and their proliferation in intima were observed in arteries after balloon injury as compared with uninjured arteries, and these responses were suppressed by adenovirus-mediated expression of dnSTAT-5B resulting in reduced neointima formation. Together, these results point to a potential role for STAT-5B in vessel wall remodeling in response to injury.

The 32P-labeled Rb protein was visualized by autoradiography, and the band intensities were quantitated using NIH Image J (National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD). DnSTAT-5A and dnSTAT-5B expression plasmids were constructed by deletion of their C-terminal regions starting from amino acids 713 to 793 in the case of the former one and from amino acids 718 to 793 in the case of the latter one.34Wang D Stravopodis D Teglund S Kitazawa J Ihle JN Naturally occurring dominant negative variants of Stat5.Mol Cell Biol. 1996; 16: 6141-6148Crossref PubMed Scopus (226) Google Scholar Construction of Ad-GFP, Ad-dnSTAT-5A, and Ad-dnSTAT-5B were described previously.15Liu Z Zhang C Dronadula N Li Q Rao GN Blockade of nuclear factor of activated T cells activation signaling suppresses balloon injury-induced neointima formation in a rat carotid artery model.J Biol Chem. 2005; 280: 14700-14708Crossref PubMed Scopus (83) Google Scholar, 29Cao H Dronadula N Rizvi F Li Q Gerthoffer WT Rao GN A novel role for STAT-5B in the regulation of Hsp27-FGF-2 axis facilitating thrombin-induced vascular smooth muscle cell DNA synthesis and motility.Circ Res. 2006; 98: 913-922Crossref PubMed Scopus (30) Google Scholar After balloon injury, solutions (100 μl) of Ad-GFP (1010 pfu/ml) or Ad-dnSTAT-5B (1010 pfu/ml) were infused into the ligated segment of the common carotid artery for 30 minutes as described previously.15Liu Z Zhang C Dronadula N Li Q Rao GN Blockade of nuclear factor of activated T cells activation signaling suppresses balloon injury-induced neointima formation in a rat carotid artery model.J Biol Chem. 2005; 280: 14700-14708Crossref PubMed Scopus (83) Google Scholar Viral transductions were evaluated at 1 week after balloon injury by isolation of arteries followed either by cryostat cross-sectioning and examining for green fluorescence protein expression or by preparing tissue extracts and Western blot analysis of GFP levels using its specific antibodies. All of the animal protocols were performed in accordance with the relevant guidelines and regulations approved by the Internal Animal Care and Use Committee of the University of Tennessee Health Science Center. Balloon injury was performed essentially as described previously by us.15Liu Z Zhang C Dronadula N Li Q Rao GN Blockade of nuclear factor of activated T cells activation signaling suppresses balloon injury-induced neointima formation in a rat carotid artery model.J Biol Chem. 2005; 280: 14700-14708Crossref PubMed Scopus (83) Google Scholar In brief, rats weighing 250 to 300 g were anesthetized by injecting (intraperitoneally) ketamine (60 mg/kg) and xylazine (5 mg/kg). Under a stereomicroscope, the right common, external and internal, carotid arteries were exposed by a longitudinal midline cervical incision, and blood flow was temporarily interrupted by ligation of the common and internal carotid arteries using vessel clips. External carotid artery was ligated permanently. A 2F Fogarty arterial embolectomy catheter was introduced through an arteriotomy in the external carotid artery just below the ligature and advanced to the common carotid artery. To produce carotid artery injury, the balloon was inflated with saline and passed six times with rotation from just under the proximal edge of the o" @default.
