Complex effects of apo(a) on endothelial cell function. by Lei Liu (5074)

“…In addition, through the dissociation of β-catenin form adherens junction and the promotion of β-catenin nuclear translocation through activation of Akt, apo(a) elicits an increase in the expression of cyclooxygenase-2 which results in increased synthesis of prostaglandin E2 (PGE₂) (unpublished observations). (3) Apo(a) inhibits pericellular plasminogen activation that is likely dependent on uPA and the uPA receptor (uPAR), an effect that results in a decrease in tube formation (current study). (4) Through unknown mechanisms, apo(a) results in increases in the expression of several adhesion molecule genes including ICAM-1 and E-selectin <a href="http://www.plosone.org/article/info:doi/10.1371/journal.pone.0052287#pone.0052287-Koschinsky2" target="_blank">[4]</a>.…”
