Abstract

Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) is increasingly being regarded as an important endocrine organ that directly impacts vessel function, structure, and contractility in obesity-associated diseases. We uncover here a role for myeloid G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) in the modulation of PVAT-dependent vasodilation responses.

Description

In this work we describe a potential role for GRK2 in myeloid cells in orchestrating the responses that promote both inflammation and excessive ROS production by NADPH oxidase in PVAT to decrease endothelium-dependent vasodilation.
