- W4316253610 abstract "Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) represent a multifactorial, proteolytic disorder involving disintegration of the matrix structure within the AAA wall. Intrinsic deficiency of adult vascular cells to regenerate and repair the wall elastic matrix, which contributes to vessel stretch and recoil, is a major clinical challenge to therapeutic reversal of AAA growth. In this study, we investigate the involvement of epidermal growth factor receptor-mitogen activated protein kinase (EGFR-MAPK) pathway in the activation of aneurysmal smooth muscle cells (SMCs) by neutrophil elastase, and how EGFR can be targeted for elastic matrix regeneration. We have demonstrated that neutrophil elastase activates EGFR and downregulates expression level of key elastin homeostasis genes (elastin, crosslinking enzyme-lysyl oxidase, and fibulin4) between a dose range of 1-10 μg/mL (p < 0.05). It also incites downstream proteolytic outcomes by upregulating p-extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK)1/2 (p < 0.0001) and matrix metalloprotease 2 (MMP2) at a protein level, which is significantly downregulated upon EGFR-specific inhibition by tyrosine kinase inhibitor AG1478 (p-ERK1/2 and MMP2 [p < 0.05]). Moreover, we have shown that EGFR inhibition suppresses collagen amounts in aneurysmal SMCs (p < 0.05) and promotes robust formation of elastic fibers by enhancing its deposition in the extracellular space. Hence, the EGFR-MAPK pathway in aneurysmal cells can be targeted to provide therapeutic effects toward stimulating vascular matrix regeneration. Impact statement Proteolytic disorders such as aortal expansions, called abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs), are characterized by naturally irreversible enzymatic breakdown and loss of elastic fibers, a problem that has not yet been surmounted by existing tissue engineering approaches. In this work, we show, for the first time, how epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibition provides downstream benefits in elastic fiber assembly and deposition in aneurysmal smooth muscle cell cultures. This work can open future possibilities for development of EGFR-targeted drug-based therapies not only for vessel wall repair in AAAs but also other proteolytically compromised elastic tissues." @default.
