| Abstract | We have recently demonstrated that endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) inhibit AngII-induced proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) by inactivating MAPKs and NF-κB signaling pathway and reducing expression of oncogene c-myc and c-fos. The inhibitory effect of EPCs on VSMCs is associated with paracrine mechanism. However, the potential mechanism of EPCs on the regulation of AngII-induced proliferation of VSMCs was unknown. Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) could inhibit AngII-induced proliferation and transformation of VSMCs. However, it has not been known whether CGRP released from EPCs is a potential regulator in regulation of AngII-induced proliferation of VSMCs. Early endothelial progenitor cell-conditioned medium(E-EPC-CM) was pre-incubated with functional blocking antibodies against CGRP for 1 h or VSMCs was preteated with CGRP$_{837}$(CGRP receptor antagonist) for 1 h before VSMCs were pretreated with CM for 30 min. DNA synthesis ability, total protein levels, cell survival, signal transduction, and expressions of c-myc and c-fos of VSMCs induced by AngII (10$^{−6}$mol/l) were detected to assess the role of CGRP in AngII-induced proliferation of VSMCs. E-EPC-CM could significantly inhibit AngII-induced DNA synthesis ability, total protein levels, cell survival, phosphorylation of ERK, JNK, p38, p65, and expressions of c-myc and c-fos compared with the control group(P < 0.05). However, Pretreatment with anti-CGRP antibody and CGRP$_{837}$ could significantly weaken the inhibitory effect of E-EPC-CM on proliferation of VSMCs induced by AngII (P < 0.05). EPCs exert anti-proliferative effects on VSMCs mediated by the release of CGRP. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
