Inhibition of p90RSK Ameliorates PDGF-BB-Mediated Phenotypic Change of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell and Subsequent Hyperplasia of Neointima

초록/요약

Platelet-derived growth factor type BB (PDGF-BB) regulates vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) migration and proliferation, which play critical roles in the development of vascular conditions. p90 ribosomal S6 kinase (p90RSK) can regulate various cellular processes through many different target substrates in several cell types, but the regulatory function of p90RSK on PDGF-BB-mediated cell migration and proliferation and subsequent vascular neointima formation has not yet been extensively examined. In this study, we investigated whether p90RSK inhibition protects VSMCs against PDGF-BB-induced cellular phenotypic changes and the molecular mechanisms underlying the effect of p90RSK inhibition on neointimal hyperplasia in vivo. Pretreatment of cultured primary rat VSMCs with FMK or BI-D1870, which are specific inhibitors of p90RSK, suppressed PDGF-BB-induced phenotypic changes, including migration, proliferation, and extracellular matrix accumulation, in VSMCs. Additionally, FMK and BI-D1870 repressed the PDGF-BB-induced upregulation of cyclin D1 and cyclin-dependent kinase-4 expression. Furthermore, p90RSK inhibition hindered the inhibitory effect of PDGF-BB on Cdk inhibitor p27 expression, indicating that p90RSK may induce VSMC proliferation by regulating the G0/G1 phase. Notably, treatment with FMK resulted in attenuation of neointima development in ligated carotid arteries in mice. The findings imply that p90RSK inhibition mitigates the phenotypic switch and neointimal hyperplasia induced by PDGF-BB. © 2023 by the authors.
