Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibition in acute lung injury. A reemerging concept

Szabo, Csaba ; Martins, Vanessa ; Liaudet, Lucas

In: American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology, 2020, vol. 63, no. 5, p. 571–590

PARP1, the major isoform of a family of ADP-ribosylating enzymes, has been implicated in the regulation of various biological processes including DNA repair, gene transcription, and cell death. The concept that PARP1 becomes activated in acute lung injury (ALI) and that pharmacological inhibition or genetic deletion of this enzyme can provide therapeutic benefits emerged over 20 years ago....

Hypoxia enhances endothelial intercellular adhesion molecule 1 protein level through upregulation of arginase type II and mitochondrial oxidative stress

Liang, Xiujie ; Arullampalam, Prakash ; Yang, Zhihong ; Ming, Xiu-Fen

In: Frontiers in Physiology, 2019, vol. 10, p. -

Hypoxia plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases. Mitochondrial enzyme arginase type II (Arg-II) is reported to lead to endothelial dysfunction and enhance the expression of endothelial inflammatory adhesion molecules such as intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1). In this study, we investigate the role of Arg-II in...
