【 摘 要 】

Background-Microsomal (m) prostaglandin (PG) E-2 synthase (S)-1 catalyzes the formation of PGE(2) from PGH(2), a cyclooxygenase product that is derived from arachidonic acid. Previous studies in mice suggest that targeting mPGES-1 may be less likely to cause hypertension or thrombosis than cyclooxygenase-2-selective inhibition or deletion in vivo. Indeed, deletion of mPGES-1 retards atherogenesis and angiotensin II-induced aortic aneurysm formation. The role of mPGES-1 in the response to vascular injury is unknown. Methods and Results-Mice were subjected to wire injury of the femoral artery. Both neointimal area and vascular stenosis were significantly reduced 4 weeks after injury in mPGES-1 knockout mice compared with wild-type controls (65.6+/-5.7 versus 37.7+/-5.1x10(3) pixel area and 70.5+/-13.4% versus 47.7+/-17.4%, respectively; P<0.01). Induction of tenascin-C, a proproliferative and promigratory extracellular matrix protein, after injury was attenuated in the knockouts. Consistent with in vivo rediversion of PG biosynthesis, mPGES-1-deleted vascular smooth muscle cells generated less PGE(2) but more PGI(2) and expressed reduced tenascin-C compared with wild-type cells. Both suppression of PGE(2) and augmentation of PGI(2) attenuate tenascin-C expression and vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation and migration in vitro. Conclusions-Deletion of mPGES-1 in mice attenuates neointimal hyperplasia after vascular injury, in part by regulating tenascin-C expression. This raises for consideration the therapeutic potential of mPGES-1 inhibitors as adjuvant therapy for percutaneous coronary intervention. (Circulation. 2011;123:631-639.)
