Therapeutic regulation of cytoprotective pathways in the vascular endothelium
2011-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Vascular injury and endothelial dysfunction are recognised features of atherosclerosis, transplant vasculopathy, SLE and rheumatoid. Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and complement inhibitory proteins (CIP) decay-accelerating factor (DAF) limit vascular injury. There is considerable interest in therapeutic manipulation of cytoprotective genes and statins induce HO-1 and DAF expression, while rapamycin (R) enhances HO-1 and...
