Research Abstract

Hic-5(hydrogen peroxide-inducible clone-5) is a focal adhesion adaptor protein proposed as a candidate for a mediator of mechanotransduction. In the present study, we generated Hic-5-deficient mice by targeted mutation. Mice lacking Hic-5 are viable and fertile, and show no obvious histological abnormalities including vasculature. However, after wire injury of the femoral artery in Hic-5 deficient mice, histological recovery of arterial media was delayed due to enhanced apoptosis of vascular wall cells, whereas neointima formation was enhanced. Stretch-induced apoptosis was enhanced in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells from Hic-5 deficient mice.
