Myeloid GRK2 Regulates Obesity-Induced Endothelial Dysfunction by Modulating Inflammatory Responses in Perivascular Adipose Tissue

Resumen

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.

Descripción

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.
