| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Endothelial cells (EC) and macrophages (Mf) play pivotal roles in the early stage of atherogenesis. Inflammatory stimuli induced CYLD expression in these cells. Knockdown of CYLD in EC induced the expression of inflammatory and adhesion molecules, followed by increased monocytes adhesion. Knockdown of CYLD in Mf induced the expression of inflammatory as well as foam cell formation along with increased expression of scavenger receptors, lipid chaperones and lipid synthase and decreased expression of lipid efflux-related molecule. Intriguingly, CYLD expression was significantly reduced in EC which met replicative senescence and bone marrow-derived Mf harvested from aged mice. CYLD in the vasculature could be a novel therapeutic target molecule, especially in the early preventive intervention against the initiation of age-related atherogenesis.
