摘要

Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is implicated in the pathogenesis of vascular abnormalities through the hyperactivation of growth promoting pathways, including protein kinase B (PKB) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) signaling. ET-1 has been shown to elicit its responses through the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Curcumin, the main constituent of the spice turmeric, exhibits cardio-protective, anti-proliferative, and antioxidant properties; however, the precise molecular mechanism of its action is unclear. Therefore, in the present study, we investigated the effects of curcumin on ET-1-induced PKB and ERK1/2 signaling, as well as insulin-like growth factor type receptor (IGF-1R) phosphorylation. Curcumin dose-dependently inhibited ET-1-induced phosphorylation of PKB, ERK1/2, c-Raf, and insulin-like growth factor type 1 receptor (IGF-1R), in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). Furthermore, curcumin also attenuated ET-1-induced expression of early growth response (Egr)-1, a transcription factor downstream of ERK1/2 that plays a regulatory role in several cardiovascular pathological processes. In conclusion, these data demonstrate that curcumin is a potent inhibitor of ET-1-induced mitogenic and proliferative signaling events in VSMC and suggest that the ability of curcumin to attenuate these events may contribute as a potential mechanism for its cardiovascular protective response.
