Popis: | KRAB domain-associated protein 1 (KAP1) is highly expressed in atherosclerotic plaques. Here, we studied the role of KAP1 in atherosclerosis development using a cell model of endothelial dysfunction induced by oxidative low-density lipoprotein (OxLDL). The phosphorylation and protein levels of KAP1 were similar between OxLDL-treated and non-treated endothelial cells (ECs). KAP1 depletion significantly inhibited the production of OxLDL-enhanced reactive oxygen species and the expression of adhesion molecules in ECs. Treatment with OxLDL promoted the proliferation and migration of ECs, which was also confirmed by the elevated levels of the proliferative markers c-Myc and PCNA, as well as the migratory marker MMP-9. However, these effects were also abrogated by KAP1 depletion. Moreover, the depletion of KAP1 in OxLDL-treated ECs resulted in decreases in the LOX-1 level and increases in eNOS expression. Generally, the data suggest that strategies targeting KAP1 depletion might be particularly useful for the prevention or treatment of atherosclerosis. |
