TGF-β upregulates α-smooth muscle actin gene transcription [ 38 ] . Since we identified significant α-smooth muscle actin expression in our model and this coincided with the expression of TGF-β, it is possible that TGF-β mediates α-smooth muscle actin expression in our model.
For instance, exposure of fibroblast-like marrow MSCs in vitro to optimal concentrations of dexamethasone, ascorbic acid and β-glycerophosphate induces a cuboidal morphology, upregulates AP and osteocalcin expression, and a mineralized (hydroxyapatite) matrix [ 20].
We have previously demonstrated that TGFβ upregulates PTHrP and PAI-1 RNA levels in MDA-MB-231 cells [ 19 ] . TGFβ affected PTHrP expression primarily by increasing the level of the promoter P3-specific transcript [ 19 ] . Quantitative PCR analysis using primers allowing the detection of PTHrP P3 and PAI-1 transcripts indicated that incubation of MDA-MB-231 cells with SB-202190 and SB-203580 greatly inhibited TGFβ-induced increase in PTHrP and, to a lesser extent, PAI-1 mRNA levels (Fig.
Additionally, C-reactive protein reduces endothelial nitric oxide synthase, upregulates the proatherosclerotic NF-κB pathway, enhances low-density lipoprotein (LDL) uptake by macrophages, which become foam cells, and facilitates T-cell- and complement-mediated destruction and apoptosis of the endothelium [2,26,29–31].
The first of these examples is the OxyR transcription factor, which upregulates peroxide defenses in
