1 Propranolol induces apoptosis of human umbilical vein endothelial cells through downregulation of CD147. Propranolol basigin (Ok blood group) Homo sapiens
2 OBJECTIVES: To investigate the role of CD147 in propranolol-induced apoptosis in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). Propranolol basigin (Ok blood group) Homo sapiens
3 Knocking down CD147 not only induced apoptosis but also exacerbated the apoptosis triggered by propranolol in HUVECs. Propranolol basigin (Ok blood group) Homo sapiens
4 Overexpression of CD147 can protect HUVECs from apoptosis and propranolol-induced apoptosis. Propranolol basigin (Ok blood group) Homo sapiens
5 Furthermore, knockdown of both propranolol and CD147 can downregulate Ser112 phosphorylation of BAD, indicating that propranolol and CD147 induce apoptosis in HUVECs through the same signalling transduction pathway. Propranolol basigin (Ok blood group) Homo sapiens
6 Furthermore, knockdown of both propranolol and CD147 can downregulate Ser112 phosphorylation of BAD, indicating that propranolol and CD147 induce apoptosis in HUVECs through the same signalling transduction pathway. Propranolol basigin (Ok blood group) Homo sapiens
7 CONCLUSIONS: Our studies demonstrate that propranolol-induced apoptosis may be mediated through the downregulation of CD147 in HUVECs. Propranolol basigin (Ok blood group) Homo sapiens
