Abstract
The transcriptional co-activator Yes-associated protein (YAP) functions as a downstream effector of the Hippo signaling pathway and plays a crucial role in cardiomyocyte survival. In its non-phosphorylated activated state, YAP binds to transcription factors, activating the transcription of downstream target genes. It also regulates cell proliferation and survival by selectively binding to enhancers and activating target genes. However, the upregulation of the Hippo pathway in human heart failure inhibits cardiac regeneration and disrupts astrogenesis, thus preventing the nuclear translocation of YAP. Existing literature indicates that the Hippo/YAP axis contributes to inflammation and fibrosis, potentially playing a role in the development of cardiac, vascular and renal injuries. Moreover, it is a key mediator of myofibroblast differentiation and fibrosis in the infarcted heart. Given these insights, can we harness YAP's regenerative potential in a targeted manner? In this review, we provide a detailed discussion of the Hippo signaling pathway and consolidate concepts for the development and intervention of cardiac anti-aging drugs to leverage YAP signaling as a pivotal target.

Biomed Pharmacother 2023; 168:115702. [PMID: 37837879 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115702] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/08/2023] [Revised: 10/03/2023] [Accepted: 10/10/2023] [Indexed: 10/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Intimal hyperplasia (IH) is a major cause of vascular restenosis after bypass surgery, which progresses as a series of processes from the acute to chronic stage in response to endothelial damage during bypass grafting. A strategic localized drug delivery system that reflects the pathophysiology of IH and minimizes systemic side effects is necessary. In this study, the sequential release of sirolimus, a mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) inhibitor, and statin, an HMG-COA inhibitor, was realized as a silk fibroin-based microneedle device in vivo. The released sirolimus in the acute stage reduced neointima (NI) and vascular fibrosis through mTOR inhibition. Furthermore, rosuvastatin, which was continuously released from the acute to chronic stage, reduced vascular stiffness and apoptosis through the inactivation of Yes-associated protein (YAP). The sequential release of sirolimus and rosuvastatin confirmed the synergistic treatment effects on vascular inflammation, VSMC proliferation, and ECM degradation remodeling through the inhibition of transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta/NF-κB pathway. These results demonstrate the therapeutic effect on preventing restenosis with sufficient vascular elasticity and significantly reduced IH in response to endothelial damage. Therefore, this study suggests a promising strategy for treating coronary artery disease through localized drug delivery of customized drug combinations.

[PMID: 37395498 DOI: 10.1111/eci.14046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2023] [Revised: 06/03/2023] [Accepted: 06/17/2023] [Indexed: 07/04/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Autologous saphenous vein grafts (SVGs) are the most commonly used bypass conduits in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) with multivessel coronary artery disease. Although external support devices for SVGs have shown promising outcomes, the overall efficacy and safety remains controversial. We aimed to evaluate external stenting for SVGs in CABG versus non-stented SVGs. METHODS MEDLINE, EMBASE, Cochrane Library and clinicaltrails.gov were searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) to evaluate external-stented SVGs versus non-stented SVGs in CABG up to 31 August 2022. The risk ratio and mean difference with 95% confidence interval were analysed. The primary efficacy outcomes included intimal hyperplasia area and thickness. The secondary efficacy outcomes were graft failure (≥50% stenosis) and lumen diameter uniformity. RESULTS We pooled 438 patients from three RCTs. The external stented SVGs group showed significant reductions in intimal hyperplasia area (MD: -0.78, p < 0.001, I2 = 0%) and thickness (MD: -0.06, p < 0.001, I2 = 0%) compared to the non-stented SVGs group. Meanwhile, external support devices improved lumen uniformity with Fitzgibbon I classification (risk ratio (RR):1.1595, p = 0.05, I2 = 0%). SVG failure rates were not increased in the external stented SVGs group during the short follow-up period (RR: 1.14, p = 0.38, I2 = 0%). Furthermore, the incidences of mortality and major cardiac and cerebrovascular events were consistent with previous reports. CONCLUSIONS External support devices for SVGs significantly reduced the intimal hyperplasia area and thickness, and improved the lumen uniformity, assessed with the Fitzgibbon I classification. Meanwhile, they did not increase the overall SVG failure rate.

Adv Healthc Mater 2023; 12:e2301247.

Abstract
Clinically, arterial injuries are always accompanied with perivascular tissue damage, which may contribute to high failure rate of vein grafts due to intimal hyperplasia and acute thrombosis. In this study, a "perivascular tissue (PVT) deprivation" animal model is constructed to mimic clinical scenarios and identify the contribution of arterial PVT to the success of vein grafts. Proteomics analysis suggests that depriving PVT may exacerbate reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced endothelial apoptosis by up-regulating inflammation response and oxidative stress. Locally administering metformin on vein grafts through 3D-printed external stent (PGS-PCL) shows antioxidative and anti-inflammatory properties to protect cells from ROS invasion, thereafter decreasing acute thrombosis. Moreover, metformin induce rapid regeneration of perivascular adipose tissue in recipient regions, which improves patency by inhibiting intimal hyperplasia. Proteomics, western blot, and in vitro blocking tests reveal that metformin resists endothelial apoptosis through AMPK/mTOR and NFκB signaling pathways. To conclude, PVT deprivation exacerbates inflammatory response and oxidative stress in vein grafts bridging arterial circulation. Metformin-loaded stent ameliorates "PVT damage" related vein graft failure, and enhances patency of through resisting endothelial apoptosis and regenerating arterial PVAT, offering a promising avenue to improve the success of vein grafts in clinic.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Bionic grafts can replace autologous tissue through tissue engineering in cases of cardiovascular disease. However, small-diameter vessel grafts remain challenging to precellularize. OBJECTIVE Bionic small-diameter vessels with endothelial and smooth muscle cells (SMCs) manufactured with a novel approach. METHODS A 1-mm-diameter bionic blood vessel was constructed by combining light-cured hydrogel gelatin-methacryloyl (GelMA) with sacrificial hydrogel Pluronic F127. Mechanical properties of GelMA (Young's modulus and tensile stress) were tested. Cell viability and proliferation were detected using Live/dead staining and CCK-8 assays, respectively. The histology and function of the vessels were observed using hematoxylin and eosin and immunofluorescence staining. RESULTS GelMA and Pluronic were printed together using extrusion. The temporary Pluronic support was removed by cooling during GelMA crosslinking, yielding a hollow tubular construct. A bionic bilayer vascular structure was fabricated by loading SMCs into the GelMA bioink, followed by perfusion with endothelial cells. In the structure, both cell types maintained good cell viability. The vessel showed good histological morphology and function. CONCLUSION Using light-cured and sacrificial hydrogels, we formed a small ca bionic vessel with a small caliber containing SMCs and endothelial cells, demonstrating an innovative approach for construction of bionic vascular tissues.

Bioact Mater 2022; 22:466-481.

Abstract
Vein grafts are widely used for coronary artery bypass grafting and hemodialysis access, but restenosis remains the "Achilles' heel" of these treatments. An extravascular stent is one wrapped around the vein graft and provides mechanical strength; it can buffer high arterial pressure and secondary vascular dilation of the vein to prevent restenosis. In this study, we developed a novel Nanocellulose-gelatin hydrogel, loaded with the drug Astragaloside IV (AS-IV) as an extravascular scaffold to investigate its ability to reduce restenosis. We found that the excellent physical and chemical properties of the drug AS-IV loaded Nanocellulose-gelatin hydrogel external stent limit graft vein expansion and make the stent biocompatible. We also found it can prevent restenosis by resisting endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) in vitro. It does so by activating autophagy, and AS-IV can enhance this effect both in vivo and in vitro. This study has added to existing research on the mechanism of extravascular stents in preventing restenosis of grafted veins. Furthermore, we have developed a novel extravascular stent for the prevention and treatment of restenosis. This will help optimize the clinical treatment plan of external stents and improve the prognosis in patients with vein grafts. The NC-Gelatin extravascular stent has suitable physicochemical properties to prevent restenosis of the grafted veins. The NC-Gelatin extravascular stent has excellent biocompatibility, which is critical for grafting veins. The NC-Gelatin extravascular stent prevents restenosis by activating autophagy against EndMT. AS-IV can enhance the effect of the stent to activate autophagy against EndMT.

Abstract
Although peroxiredoxin 2 (PRDX2) plays a vital role in relieving oxidative stress, its physiological function in cartilage development remains almost unknown. In this study, we found that the expression of PRDX2 significantly increased in the chondrocytes compared with pre-chondrocytes. PRDX2 knockdown significantly decreased the expression of extracellular matrix (ECM) protein (Col2a and Aggrecan), which led to blocked cartilage formation. Moreover, PRDX2 knockdown also inhibited the expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF). CTGF is an important growth factor that regulates synthesis of ECM proteins. We explored the possible regulatory mechanism by which PRDX2 regulated the expression of CTGF. Our results demonstrated that PRDX2 knockdown downregulated the expression of CTGF by inhibiting Wnt5a/Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1) pathway. In addition, PRDX2 knockdown promoted the expression of interleukin 6 (IL-6), indicating PRDX2 expression had an anti-inflammatory function during antler growth. Mechanistically, PRDX2 knockdown promoted cartilage matrix degradation by activating the IL-6-mediated Janus Kinase 2/Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 (JAK2/STAT3) signaling pathway. These results reveal that PRDX2 is a potential regulator that promotes cartilage extracellular matrix synthesis.

Abstract
Although autologous vein grafting is essential, the high vein failure rate and specific clinical interventions are not clear, so a potential treatment is critically needed; thus, complex analyses of the relationship between pathobiological and physiological processes in preclinical are essential. The interposition of the femoral vein was performed in a canine model. Maximized expansion and velocity were measured at 8 weeks post-implantation, and a relative decrease was observed at 12 weeks. However, NI formation and NI/Media ratio significantly increased time dependently, and differences between the mechanical properties were observed. Additionally, RhoA-mediated TNF-α induced by rapid structural changes and high shear stress was confirmed. After adaptation to the arterial environment, vascular remodeling occurred by SMC proliferation and differentiation, apoptosis and autophagy were induced through YAP activity without vasodilation and RhoA activity. Our results show that understanding pathobiological processes in which time-dependent physiological changes contribute to vein failure can lead to a potential strategy. The implanted vein graft within the arterial environment undergoes pathobiological processes through RhoA and YAP activity, leading to pathophysiological changes.
