r sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) acts on vascular endothelial cells to stimulate migration and tube formation, and plays the critical role in developmental angiogenesis. We developed poly(lactic-co-glycolic-acid) (PLGA)-based S1P-containing microparticles (PLGA-S1P), which are biodegradable and continuously release S1P, and studied the effects of PLGA-S1P on neovascularization in murine ischemic hindlimbs. Intramuscular injections of PLGA-S1P stimulated blood flow in C57BL/6 mice dose-dependently, with repeated administrations at a 3-day interval, rather than a single bolus or 6-day interval, over 28. days conferring the optimal stimulating effect. In Balb/c mice that exhibit limb necrosis and dysfunction due to retarded blood flow recovery, injections of PLGA-S1P stimulated blood flow with alleviation of limb necrosis and dysfunction. PLGA-S1P alone did not induce edema in ischemic limbs, and rather blocked vascular endothelial growth factor-induced edema. PLGA-S1P not only increased the microvessel densities in ischemic muscle, but promoted coverage of vessels with smooth muscle cells and pericytes, thus stabilizing vessels. PLGA-S1P stimulated Akt and ERK with increased phosphorylation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase in ischemic muscle. The effects of the nitric oxide synthase inhibitor, Nω-nitro-l-arginine methylester, showed that PLGA-S1P-induced blood flow stimulation was partially dependent on nitric oxide. Injections of PLGA-S1P also increased the expression of angiogenic factors and the recruitment of CD45-, CD11b- and Gr-1-positive myeloid cells, which are implicated in post-ischemic angiogenesis, into ischemic muscle. These results indicate that PLGA-based, sustained local delivery of S1P is a potentially useful therapeutic modality for stimulating post-ischemic angiogenesis. © 2010 Elsevier B.V.

osine kinase (SPHK) 1 and SPHK2 in vivo, and plays diverse biological and pathophysiological roles by acting largely through three members of the G protein-coupled S1P receptors, S1P1, S1P2 and S1P3. S1P1 expressed on endothelial cells mediates embryonic vascular maturation and maintains vascular integrity by contributing to eNOS activation, inhibiting vascular permeability and inducing endothelial cell chemotaxis via Gi-coupled mechanisms. By contrast, S1P2, is expressed in high levels on vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) and certain types of tumor cells, inhibiting Rac and cell migration via a G12/13-and Rho-dependent mechanism. In rat neointimal VSMCs, S1P1 is upregulated to mediate local production of platelet-derived growth factor, which is a key player in vascular remodeling. S1P3 expressed on endothelial cells also mediates chemotaxis toward S1P and vasorelaxation via NO production in certain vascular bed, playing protective roles for vascular integrity. S1P3 expressed on VSMCs and cardiac sinoatrial node cells mediates vasopressor and negative chronotropic effect, respectively. In addition, S1P3, together with S1P2 and SPHK1, is suggested to play a protective role against acute myocardial ischemia. However, our recent work indicates that overexpressed SPHK1 is involved in cardiomyocyte degeneration and fibrosis in vivo, in part through S1P activation of the S1P3 signaling. We also demonstrated that exogenously administered S1P accelerates neovascularization and blood flow recovery in ischemic limbs, suggesting its usefulness for angiogenic therapy. These results provide evidence for S1P receptor subtype-specific pharmacological intervention as a novel therapeutic approach to cardiovascular diseases and cancer. © 2008 Elsevier B.V.
