Abstract
Aortic aneurysm is a vascular disease characterized by irreversible vasodilatation that can lead to dissection and rupture of the aortic aneurysm, a life-threatening condition. Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) and abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) are two main types. The typical treatments for aortic aneurysms are open surgery and endovascular aortic repair, which are only indicated for more severe patients. Most patients with aneurysms have an insidious onset and slow progression, and there are no effective drugs to treat this stage. The inability of current animal models to perfectly simulate all the pathophysiological states of human aneurysms may be the key to this issue. Therefore, elucidating the molecular mechanisms of this disease, finding new therapeutic targets, and developing effective drugs to inhibit the development of aneurysms are the main issues of current research. Natural products have been applied for thousands of years to treat cardiovascular disease (CVD) in China and other Asian countries. In recent years, natural products have combined multi-omics, computational biology, and integrated pharmacology to accurately analyze drug components and targets. Therefore, the multi-component and multi-target complexity of natural products have made them a potentially ideal treatment for multifactorial diseases such as aortic aneurysms. Natural products have regained popularity worldwide. This review provides an overview of the known natural products for the treatment of TAA and AAA and searches for potential cardiovascular-targeted natural products that may treat TAA and AAA based on various cellular molecular mechanisms associated with aneurysm development.

Abstract
Aging is a major risk factor for numerous chronic diseases. Vaccination offers a promising strategy to combat these age-related diseases by targeting specific antigens and inducing immune responses. Here, we provide a comprehensive overview of recent advances in vaccine-based interventions targeting these diseases, including Alzheimer's disease, type II diabetes, hypertension, abdominal aortic aneurysm, atherosclerosis, osteoarthritis, fibrosis and cancer, summarizing current approaches for identifying disease-associated antigens and inducing immune responses against these targets. Further, we reflect on the recent development of vaccines targeting senescent cells, as a strategy for more broadly targeting underlying causes of aging and associated pathologies. In addition to highlighting recent progress in these areas, we discuss important next steps to advance the therapeutic potential of these vaccines, including improving and robustly demonstrating efficacy in human clinical trials, as well as rigorously evaluating the safety and long-term effects of these vaccine strategies.

A Comprehensive Retrospective Study on the Mechanisms of Cyclic Mechanical Stretch-Induced Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Death Underlying Aortic Dissection and Potential Therapeutics for Preventing Acute Aortic Aneurysm and Associated Ruptures. Int J Mol Sci 2024; 25:2544. [PMID: 38473793 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25052544] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/31/2024] [Revised: 02/19/2024] [Accepted: 02/20/2024] [Indexed: 03/14/2024] Open
Abstract
Acute aortic dissection (AAD) and associated ruptures are the leading causes of death in cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Hypertension is a prime risk factor for AAD. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying AAD remain poorly understood. We previously reported that cyclic mechanical stretch (CMS) leads to the death of rat aortic smooth muscle cells (RASMCs). This review focuses on the mechanisms of CMS-induced vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) death. Moreover, we have also discussed the potential therapeutics for preventing AAD and aneurysm ruptures.

Abstract
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a severe vascular disease and a major public health issue with an unmet medical need for therapy. This disease is featured by a progressive dilation of the abdominal aorta, boosted by atherosclerosis, ageing, and smoking as major risk factors. Aneurysm growth increases the risk of aortic rupture, a life-threatening emergency with high mortality rates. Despite the increasing progress in our knowledge about the etiopathology of AAA, an effective pharmacological treatment against this disorder remains elusive and surgical repair is still the unique available therapeutic approach for high-risk patients. Meanwhile, there is no medical alternative for patients with small aneurysms but close surveillance. Clinical trials assessing the efficacy of antihypertensive agents, statins, doxycycline, or anti-platelet drugs, among others, failed to demonstrate a clear benefit limiting AAA growth, while data from ongoing clinical trials addressing the benefit of metformin on aneurysm progression are eagerly awaited. Recent preclinical studies have postulated new therapeutic targets and pharmacological strategies paving the way for the implementation of future clinical studies exploring these novel therapeutic strategies. This review summarises some of the most relevant clinical and preclinical studies in search of new therapeutic approaches for AAA.

Activation of the Mas receptors by AVE0991 and MrgD receptor using alamandine to limit the deleterious effects of Ang II-induced hypertension. Fundam Clin Pharmacol 2023; 37:60-74. [PMID: 36117326 DOI: 10.1111/fcp.12829] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 07/04/2022] [Revised: 08/16/2022] [Accepted: 09/06/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023]
Abstract
The MrgD receptor agonist, alamandine (ALA) and Mas receptor agonist, AVE0991 have recently been identified as protective components of the renin-angiotensin system. We evaluated the effects of ALA and AVE0991 on cardiovascular function and remodeling in angiotensin (Ang) II-induced hypertension in rats. Sprague Dawley rats were subject to 4-week subcutaneous infusions of Ang II (80 ng/kg/min) or saline after which they were treated with ALA (50 μg/kg), AVE0991 (576 μg/kg), or ALA+AVE0991 during the last 2 weeks. Systolic blood pressure (SBP) and heart rate (HR) values were recorded with tail-cuff plethysmography at 1, 15, and 29 days post-treatment. After euthanization, the heart and thoracic aorta were removed for further analysis and vascular responses. SBP significantly increased in the Ang II group when compared to the control group. Furthermore, Ang II also caused an increase in cardiac and aortic cyclophilin-A (CYP-A), monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), and cardiomyocyte degeneration but produced a decrease in vascular relaxation. HR, matrix metalloproteinase-2 and -9, NADPH oxidase-4, and lysyl oxidase levels were comparable among groups. ALA, AVE0991, and the drug combination produced antihypertensive effects and alleviated vascular responses. The inflammatory and oxidative stress related to cardiac MCP-1 and CYP-A levels decreased in the Ang II+ALA+AVE0991 group. Vascular but not cardiac angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 levels decreased with Ang II administration but were similar to the Ang II+ALA+AVE0991 group. Our experimental data showed the combination of ALA and AVE0991 was found beneficial in Ang II-induced hypertension in rats by reducing SBP, oxidative stress, inflammation, and improving vascular responses.

Abstract
Background: Previous studies, using autopsy and angiography, have shown that 3.6–6% of the population have intracranial aneurysms, and the rupture of aneurysm can lead to brain dysfunction or even death in patients. Methods: To explore potential preventional target genes for the ruptured of aneurysm, we analyze three gene expression datasets (GSE13353, GSE15629 and GSE54083) derived from the GEO database. We confirm DEGs associated with the unrupture of aneurysms by R package. DAVID version provides functional classification and annotation analyses of associated genes, including GO and KEGG pathway. PPI of these DEGs is analyzed based on the string database and visualized by Cytoscape software. DEGs are verified by qRT-PCR using samples isolated from the patients. Results: 249 overlapping DEGs, including 96 up-regulated genes and 153 down-regulated genes are screened using the Venn diagram webtool. The GO term and KEGG pathways analysis results indicate that these DEGs are mainly enriched in protein phosphorylation, apoptotic process and inflammatory response in the BP term and focal adhesion, thyroid hormone signaling pathway, ErbB signaling pathway, cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction and some disease processes in the KEGG pathways. 6 candidates are confirmed by Cytoscape software and qRT-PCR, including APP, JUN, GSK3B, ErbB2, PPBP and THBS1. Conclusions: Our data and previous studies show that ErbB2 and THBS1 are crucial to prevent aneurysm rupture, while APP, JUN, GSK3B and PPBP performs the opposite role, and further experiments are needed to verify these findings.

Immunoneutralization of human angiotensin-(1-12) with a monoclonal antibody in a humanized model of hypertension. Peptides 2022; 149:170714.

Abstract
We engineered a monoclonal antibody (mAb) against the human C-terminus of angiotensin-(1-12) [h-Ang-(1-12)] and performed a biochemical characterization in concert with direct in vivo and ex vivo (carotid artery strips) assessments of h-Ang-(1-12) vasoconstrictor activity in 78 (36 females) transgenic rats expressing the human angiotensinogen gene [TGR(hAGT)L1623] and 26 (10 female) Sprague Dawley (SD) controls. The mAb shows high specificity in neutralizing angiotensin II formation from h-Ang-(1-12) and did not cross-react with human and rat angiotensins. Changes in arterial pressure and heart rate in Inactin® hydrate anesthetized rats were measured before and after h-Ang-(1-12) injections [dose range: 75-300 pmol/kg i.v.] prior to and 30-60 minutes after administration of the h-Ang-(1-12) mAb. Neutralization of circulating Ang-(1-12) inhibited the pressor action of h-Ang-(1-12), prevented Ang-(1-12) constrictor responses in carotid artery rings in both SD and TGR(hAGT)L1623 rats, and caused a fall in the arterial pressure of male and female transgenic rats. The Ang-(1-12) mAb did not affect the response of comparable dose-related pressor responses to Ang II, pre-immune IgG, or the rat sequence of Ang-(1-12). This h-Ang-(1-12) mAb can effectively suppress the pressor actions of the substrate in the circulation of hypertensive rats or in carotid artery strips from both SD and transgenic rats. The demonstration that this Ang-(1-12) mAb by itself, induced a fall in arterial pressure in transgenic hypertensive rats supports further exploring the potential abilities of Ang-(1-12) mAb in the treatment of hypertension.

A novel intramural TGF β 1 hydrogel delivery method to decrease murine abdominal aortic aneurysm and rat aortic pseudoaneurysm formation and progression. Biomed Pharmacother 2021; 137:111296. [PMID: 33545663 DOI: 10.1016/j.biopha.2021.111296] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/06/2020] [Revised: 01/13/2021] [Accepted: 01/18/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Aneurysms are generally the result of dilation of all 3 layers of the vessel wall, and pseudoaneurysms are the result of localized extravasation of blood that is contained by surrounding tissue. Since there is still no recommended protocol to decrease aneurysm formation and progression, we hypothesised that intramural delivery of TGF β1 hydrogel can decrease aneurysm and pseudoaneurysm formation and progression. MATERIALS Male C57BL/6 J mice (12-14 wk), SD rats (200 g) and pig abdominal aortas were used, and hydrogels were fabricated by the interaction of sodium alginate (SA), hyaluronic acid (HA) and CaCO3. METHODS A CaCl2 adventitial incubation model in mice and a decellularized human great saphenous vein patch angioplasty model in rats were used. TGF β1 hydrogel was intramurally delivered after CaCl2 incubation in mice; at day 7, the abdomen in some mice was reopened, and TGF β1 hydrogel was injected intramurally into the aorta. In rats, TGF β1 hydrogel was delivered intramurally after patch angioplasty completion. Tissues were harvested at day 14 and analysed by histology and immunohistochemistry staining. The pig aorta was also intramurally injected with hydrogel. RESULTS In mice, rhodamine hydrogel was still found between the medium and adventitia at day 14. In the mouse aneurysm model, there was a thicker wall and smaller amount of elastin breaks in the TGF β1 hydrogel-delivered groups both at day 0 and day 7 after CaCl2 incubation, and there were larger numbers of p-smad2- and TAK1-positive cells in the TGF β1 hydrogel-injected groups. In the rat decellularized human saphenous vein patch pseudoaneurysm model, there was a higher incidence of pseudoaneurysm formation when the patch was decellularized using 3% SDS, and delivery of TGF β1 hydrogel could effectively decrease the formation of pseudoaneurysm formation and increase p-smad2 and TAK1 expression. In pig aortas, hydrogels can be delivered between the medium and adventitia easily and successfully. CONCLUSIONS Intramural delivery of TGF β1 hydrogel can effectively decease aneurysm and pseudoaneurysm formation and progression in both mice and rats, and pig aortas can also be successfully intramurally injected with hydrogel. This technique may be a promising drug delivery method and therapeutic choice to decrease aneurysm and pseudoaneurysm formation and progression in the clinic.
