Abstract

Rapamycin (RPM) is frequently used as the drug coating in drug‑eluting stents (DESs) as it can inhibit the growth of smooth muscle cells. However, RPM also inhibits the proliferation and migration of vascular endothelial cells, and impairs reendothelialization in DES implantation. Therefore, the development of a strategy to protect vascular endothelial cells after DES implantation is of great importance. Long non‑coding RNAs (lncRNAs) metastasis‑associated lung adenocarcinoma transcript 1 (MALAT1) and smooth muscle and endothelial cell‑enriched migration/differentiation‑associated lncRNA (SENCR) are able to enhance the proliferation, migration and angiogenesis of endothelial cells, which suggests that they may have potential as antagonists of the adverse effects of RPM in DES. However, the relationship between RPM and lncRNAs in endothelial cells during the intervention is not fully understood at present. The current study investigated the role and potential mechanism of the lncRNA SENCR on the activity of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) after RPM treatment. The proliferation, migration, angiogenic capacity and cell cycle progression of lncRNA SENCR‑overexpressing HUVECs following RPM treatment was examined. The...Continue Reading

Cell Migration

Cell migration is involved in a variety of physiological and pathological processes such as embryonic development, cancer metastasis, blood vessel formation and remoulding, tissue regeneration, immune surveillance and inflammation. Here is the latest research.
