Popis: | International audience; There is evidence for a clinical benefit of ACE inhibitors or AT1 antagonists in cardiovascular diseases with deleterious smooth muscle cells (SMC) apoptosis. We have previously shown that angiotensin II (Ang II) induces a phenotype-dependent SMC apoptosis. We asked whether bradykinin (BK) and nitric oxide (NO) could modulate Ang II-induced SMC apoptosis. BK alone did not induce significant apoptosis in either spindle (Sp-SMC) or epithelioid (Ep-SMC) SMC phenotypes cultured in serum reduction, but phenotype-dependently, reduced cell proliferation. Pretreatment with BK partly impaired Ang II-induced reduction of Ep-SMC culture viability and partly prevented apoptotic features. Pretreatment with sodium nitroprusside completely prevented all Ang II-induced deleterious effects in Ep-SMC, i. e. reduction of culture viability, Annexin V binding, nuclear condensation and cell fragmentation. These findings indicate that the BK-NO system may phenotype-dependently modulate SMC survival and in particular may oppose, mostly by NO, Ang II-induction of apoptosis in the Ep-SMC phenotype. |
