We analyzed the effect of hypoxia and inflammation on key enzymes involved in prostanoid biosynthesis in human vascular cells. In human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC), hypoxia and interleukin (IL)-1β synergistically increased prostaglandin (PG)I₂ but not PGE₂ release, thereby increasing the PGI₂/PGE₂ ratio. Concomitantly, these stimuli upregulated cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression (mRNA and protein) and COX activity. Interestingly, hypoxia enhanced PGI-synthase (PGIS) expression and activity in VSMC and human endothelial cells. Hypoxia did not significantly modify the inducible microsomal-PGE-synthase (mPGES)-1. Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α-silencing abrogated hypoxia-induced PGIS upregulation. PGIS transcriptional activity was enhanced by hypoxia; however, the minimal PGIS promoter responsive to hypoxia (-131 bp) did not contain any putative hypoxia response element (HRE), suggesting that HIF-1 does not directly drive PGIS transcription. Serial deletion and site-directed mutagenesis studies suggested several transcription factors participate cooperatively. Plasma levels of the stable metabolite of PGI₂ and PGIS expression in several tissues were also upregulated in mice exposed to hypoxia. These data suggest that PGIS upregulation is part of the adaptive response of vascular cells to hypoxic stress and could play a role in counteracting the deleterious effect of inflammatory stimuli."xsd:string |
