Article Title: SLC7A5 promotes vascular remodeling in the rat carotid artery following balloon injury through PI3K/Akt signaling pathway
Journal: Frontiers in Pharmacology
doi: 10.3389/fphar.2026.1857850
Figure Legend Snippet: SLC7A5 is upregulated during vascular remodeling. (A) Volcano plot of the GSE220512 dataset showing that Slc7a5 is significantly upregulated in neointimal tissue from mouse carotid arteries at Day 7 after wire injury compared with Day 0 controls. (B) Quantitative PCR analysis of SLC7A5 mRNA expression at indicated time points. (C) Representative Western blot and quantitative analysis showing SLC7A5 protein expression at 0, 7, and 14 days after vascular injury (n = 6). (D) Immunohistochemical staining of SLC7A5 in vascular tissues from sham, 7-day, and 14-day groups, showing increased expression in the medial layer during remodeling. bar = 50 μm. (E) Western blot and quantification of SLC7A5 expression in endothelial cells (ECs), macrophages, and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) (n = 3). (F) Immunofluorescence staining showing increased SLC7A5 expression in VSMCs following PDGF-BB stimulation compared with control. bar = 50 μm. Data are presented as mean ± SEM. Statistical significance is indicated as shown.
Techniques Used: Real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction, Expressing, Western Blot, Immunohistochemical staining, Staining, Immunofluorescence, Control
Figure Legend Snippet: Knockdown of SLC7A5 inhibits PDGF-BB–induced VSMC proliferation, migration, and phenotypic switching. (A) Western blot analysis and quantification of PCNA expression in VSMCs under different treatments (n = 4). (B) Representative images of EdU staining and quantification of EdU-positive cells (n = 4) bar = 50 μm. (C) Western blot analysis and quantification of MMP2 expression (n = 4). (D) Representative images of wound healing assays at indicated time points and quantitative analysis of migration rate (n = 4) bar = 50 μm. (E) Western blot analysis and quantification of α-SMA expression (n = 4). (F) Representative immunofluorescence staining of α-SMA (green) and DAPI (blue), along with quantitative analysis of fluorescence intensity (n = 4) bar = 100 μm. PDGF-BB was used to induce VSMC activation. siSLC7A5 was used to silence SLC7A5 expression, and siNC served as a negative control. Data were presented as mean ± SEM from at four independent experiments. Statistical significance was determined using one-way ANOVA followed by appropriate post hoc tests.
Techniques Used: Knockdown, Migration, Western Blot, Expressing, Staining, Immunofluorescence, Fluorescence, Activation Assay, Negative Control
Figure Legend Snippet: SLC7A5 knockdown attenuates the activation of the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway induced by PDGF-BB. (A–C) Western blot analysis of PI3K/Akt signaling pathway–related proteins, including phosphorylated PI3K (p-PI3K), total PI3K, phosphorylated Akt (p-Akt), and total Akt.
Techniques Used: Knockdown, Activation Assay, Western Blot
