Abstract
OBJECTIVE Smooth muscle-like cells are major cell components of transplant arteriosclerosis lesions. This study investigated the origin of the smooth muscle-like cells, the mechanisms responsible for their accumulation in the neointima, and the factors that drive these processes. APPROACH AND RESULTS A murine aortic transplantation model was established by transplanting miR-155(-/-) bone marrow cells into miR-155(+/+) mice. MicroRNA-155 was found to play a functional role in the transplant arteriosclerosis. Moreover, we found that the nonbone marrow-derived progenitor cells with markers of both early differentiated smooth muscles and stem cells in the allograft adventitia were smooth muscle progenitor cells. Purified smooth muscle progenitor cells expressed a mature smooth muscle cell marker when induced by platelet-derived growth factor-BB in vitro. In vivo, these cells could migrate into the intima from the adventitia and could contribute to the neointimal hyperplasia. The loss of microRNA-155 in bone marrow-derived cells decreased the concentration gradient of monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 between the intima and the adventitia of the allografts, which reduced the migration of smooth muscle progenitor cells from the adventitia into the neointima. CONCLUSIONS This study demonstrated that microRNA-155 promoted the directional migration of smooth muscle progenitor cells from the adventitia by regulating the monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 concentration gradient, which aggravated transplant arteriosclerosis.
