Abstract

Sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI) is characterized by fibrin deposition, which indicates the local activation of coagulation. Tissue factor (TF), expressed in the pulmonary microvasculature, acts as a critical initiator of blood coagulation and ALI in sepsis. The molecular mechanism of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced TF expression in endothelial cells (ECs), however, has not been determined. In this study, we implicate the Rho-associated protein kinase (ROCK)/Yes associated protein (YAP)/early growth response (Egr-1) signaling pathway in LPS-induced TF expression in vitro and in sepsis-induced ALI in vivo. Human umbilical vein ECs incubated with LPS were pretreated with or without the ROCK inhibitor Y-27632, a YAP small, interfering RNA (siRNA) and an Egr-1 siRNA. ROCK, YAP and Egr-1 signaling-induced protein expression was investigated by Western blot. The LPS-induced activation of YAP was analyzed by an immunofluorescent assay. Furthermore, we intratracheally injected YAP siRNA to assess septic ALI in mice by hematoxylin and eosin staining. LPS rapidly induced ROCK activation and increased TF expression in ECs. LPS caused YAP shuttling into the nuclei of ECs and combined with Egr-1 via the activation of ROCK. Furthermor...Continue Reading

Blood Coagulation Signaling Pathways

Coagulation is the process by which a blood clot is formed. This process includes both the formation of a platelet plug as well as a cascade of clotting factors resulting in the formation of fibrin strands. Find the latest research on coagulation signaling pathways here.

Blood Clotting Disorders

Thrombophilia includes conditions with increased tendency for excessive blood clotting. Blood clotting occurs when the body has insufficient amounts of specialized proteins that make blood clot and stop bleeding. Here is the latest research on blood clotting disorders.
