Sb-Phenyl-N-methyl-5,6,7,12-tetrahydrodibenz[c,f][1,5]azastibocine Induces Perlecan Core Protein Synthesis in Cultured Vascular Endothelial Cells

Vascular endothelial cells synthesize and secrete perlecan, a large heparan sulfate proteoglycan that increases the anticoagulant activity of vascular endothelium by inducing antithrombin III and intensifying fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-2 activity to promote migration and proliferation in the rep...

description Vascular endothelial cells synthesize and secrete perlecan, a large heparan sulfate proteoglycan that increases the anticoagulant activity of vascular endothelium by inducing antithrombin III and intensifying fibroblast growth factor (FGF)-2 activity to promote migration and proliferation in the repair process of damaged endothelium during the progression of atherosclerosis. However, the exact regulatory mechanisms of endothelial perlecan expression remain unclear. Since organic–inorganic hybrid molecules are being developed rapidly as tools to analyze biological systems, we searched for a molecular probe to analyze these mechanisms using a library of organoantimony compounds and found that the Sb-phenyl-N-methyl-5,6,7,12-tetrahydrodibenz[c,f][1,5]azastibocine (PMTAS) molecule promotes the expression of perlecan core protein gene without exhibiting cytotoxicity in vascular endothelial cells. In the present study, we characterized proteoglycans synthesized by cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells using biochemical techniques. The results indicated that PMTAS selectively induced perlecan core protein synthesis, without affecting the formation of its heparan sulfate chain, in vascular endothelial cells. The results also implied that this process is independent of the endothelial cell density, whereas in vascular smooth muscle cells, it occurred only at high cell density. Thus, PMTAS would be a useful tool for further studies on the mechanisms underlying perlecan core protein synthesis in vascular cells, which is critical in the progression of vascular lesions, such as those during atherosclerosis.
