Aims: Thrombospondin-1 (TSP1), a secretory protein, has been associated with various cardiovascular diseases. TSP1 mainly functions via its cognate receptors CD47 and CD36. Recently, we observed elevated TSP1 expression in human and murine atherosclerotic arteries. However, the role of vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) TSP1-CD47 signaling in regulating VSMC phenotype and atherogenesis is unclear. Methods and Results: Human arterial SMCs were treated with human TSP1 and analyzed for SMC markers and proliferation. The data revealed decreased expression of SMC markers, ACTA, CNN1, and SM22α in TSP1-exposed VSMCs compared with vehicle-treated control cells. Further, TSP1 treatment increased VSMC proliferation in vitro , suggesting TSP1 induces VSMC hyperproliferative phenotype. Additional experiments showed CD47 as the major TSP1’s receptor in VSMCs. To investigate the in vivo role of VSMC Cd47 in atherosclerosis, we generated tamoxifen-inducible SMC-specific Cd47 knockout mice ( Cd47 f/f Myh11 Cre +/– , Cd47 ΔVSMC ) by crossing female Cd47 f/f mice with male Myh11 Cre +/- mice. Male tamoxifen-injected Cd47 ΔVSMC and corn oil-administered Cd47 WT mice were given a single injection of AAV8- hPCSK9 (1х10 11 viral genomes/mouse, IP) and fed a Western diet for 12 weeks. En face oil red O (ORO) staining of whole aortas exhibited reduced atherosclerosis in Cd47 ΔVSMC mice compared with control Cd47 WT mice. Further histochemical staining performed on aortic root sections revealed attenuated neointimal lesion area, lipid accumulation and necrotic area in Cd47 ΔVSMC mice. However, there were no significant differences in weight gain, body composition (fat and lean mass), plasma total cholesterol, and fasting blood glucose between Cd47 ΔVSMC and Cd47 WT mice. Conclusions: Taken together, these findings suggest that TSP1 promotes VSMC phenotype switch and VSMC-specific Cd47 deletion in hypercholesterolemic mice suppresses atherosclerosis progression. |
