摘要

Abstract Pulmonary vascular adventitia serves as a key regulator of pulmonary vascular remodeling in the pathogenesis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Excessive proliferation and differentiation of pulmonary adventitial fibroblasts (PAFs) are proven to be crucial in the pathogenesis of PAH. Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is known as a key fibroblasts activating factor which is involved in the fibrogenesis of several diseases, such as pulmonary fibrosis, vascular fibrosis, and heart failure. Therefore, we seek to investigate the potential role of Gal-3 in regulating PAF cells in the pathogenesis of PAH. Gal-3 plasma concentration was significantly higher in PAH patients. Gal-3 was upregulated in pulmonary artery adventitia of hypoxia-induced PAH rats. Inhibition of Gal-3 with N-Acetyl-D-lactosamine (N-Lac) ameliorated PAH and pulmonary vascular remodeling. Gal-3 can stimulate the proliferation, differentiation, and collagen synthesis of PAFs, which was reversed by N-Lac. Transforming growth factor β1 increased Gal-3 expression in PAFs, whereas N-Lac significantly suppressed transforming growth factor β1–induced proliferation, differentiation, and collagen synthesis of PAFs. Gal-3 serves as a critical regulator in the pathogenesis of PAH by regulating the proliferation, differentiation, and extracellular matrix deposition synthesis of PAFs. Inhibition of Gal-3 may represent a novel therapeutic target for PAH treatment. Highlights ? Galectin-3 (Gal-3) was upregulated in pulmonary artery adventitia of hypoxia-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension rats, inhibition of Gal-3 ameliorated pulmonary arterial hypertension and pulmonary vascular remodeling. ? Gal-3 can stimulate the proliferation, differentiation, and collagen synthesis of pulmonary adventitial fibroblasts (PAFs), which was reversed by Gal-3 inhibitors. ? Transforming growth factor β1 increased Gal-3 expression in PAFs, whereas inhibition of Gal-3 significantly suppressed transforming growth factor β1 induced PAFs proliferation, differentiation, and collagen synthesis. ]]>

Galectin-3(Gal-3)在缺氧诱导的肺动脉高压大鼠的肺动脉外膜上进行了上调,抑制GAL-3改善肺动脉高压和肺血管重塑。还GAL-3可以刺激肺部过度成纤维细胞(PAF)的增殖,分化和胶原合成,其被GAL-3抑制剂逆转。还转化生长因子β1增加PAF中的GAL-3表达,而GAL-3的抑制显着抑制了转化生长因子β1诱导的PAFS增殖,分化和胶原合成。 ]]>
