| Research Abstract |
We investigated intrinsic susceptibility and its associated increase of oxidative stress in brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMEC) by comparing BMEC and aortic endothelial cells (AEC). When investigating the effect of advanced glycation end products on molecular permeability, the molecular permeability was more prominent in BMEC than in AEC. The susceptibility in BMEC was dependent on VEGF expression induced by over-production of reactive oxygen species. When investigating the effect of hyperglycemia on production of reactive oxygen species in BMEC and AEC, the production was increased in hyperglycemia. Since NOX4, one of subunits of NADPH oxidases, was also increased in the same hyperglycemic condition, we speculate that NOX4 is related to hyperglycemia-induced over-production of reactive oxygen species.
