β-Endorphin Mediates the Development and Instability of Atherosclerotic Plaques by Taisuke Okano, Kengo Sato, Remina Shirai, Tomomi Seki, Koichiro Shibata, Tomoyuki Yamashita, Ayaka Koide, Hitomi Tezuka, Yusaku Mori, Tsutomu Hirano, Takuya Watanabe

“…The μ-opioid receptor (OPRM1) was expressed in THP-1 monocytes, macrophages, HASMCs, HUVECs, and human aortic endothelial cells. β-Endorphin significantly increased THP-1 monocyte adhesion to HUVECs and induced upregulation of intercellular adhesion molecule-1, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, and E-selectin via nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) and p38 phosphorylation in HUVECs. β-Endorphin significantly increased HUVEC proliferation and enhanced oxidized low-density lipoprotein-induced foam cell formation in macrophages. β-Endorphin also significantly shifted the macrophage phenotype to proinflammatory M1 rather than anti-inflammatory M2 via NF-κB phosphorylation during monocyte-macrophage differentiation and increased migration and apoptosis in association with c-jun-N-terminal kinase, p38, and NF-κB phosphorylation in HASMCs. …”

Invasion of pancreatic ductal epithelial cells by Enterococcus faecalis is mediated by fibronectin and enterococcal fibronectin-binding protein A by Munefumi Shimosaka, Jumpei Kondo, Mamika Sonoda, Rui Kawaguchi, Emika Noda, Kaho Nishikori, Asuka Ogata, Shinji Takamatsu, Ken Sasai, Hirofumi Akita, Hidetoshi Eguchi, Yoshihiro Kamada, Shigefumi Okamoto, Eiji Miyoshi

“…Mechanistically, bacterial expression of enterococcal fibronectin-binding protein A (EfbA) was correlated with adhesive potential of E. faecalis strains. Knockout of fibronectin 1, a binding partner of EfbA, in iPDECs resulted in suppressed E. faecalis adhesion and invasion, suggesting the importance of the EfbA-fibronectin axis in infection of pancreatic ductal epithelial lineage cells. …”
