Oxidized LDL (oxLDL) has multiple proatherogenic effects including induction of apoptosis. We have recently shown that oxLDL markedly downregulates insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) receptor in human aortic smooth muscle cells, and that IGF-1 receptor overexpression blocks oxLDL induced apoptosis. We hypothesized that specific oxLDL-triggered signaling events led to IGF-1 receptor downregulation and apoptosis. We examined oxLDL signaling pathways and found that neither IGF-1 receptor downregulation nor the pro-apoptotic effect were blocked by inhibition of oxLDL triggered ERK, p38 MAPK, or PPAR signaling pathways as assessed using specific inhibitors. However, antioxidants, PEG-catalase, superoxide dismutase and Trolox completely blocked oxLDL downregulation of IGF-1 receptor and oxLDL induced apoptosis. Nordihydroguaiaretic acid, AA-861 and baicalein,which are lipoxygenase inhibitors and also have antioxidant activity, blocked IGF-1 receptor downregulation and apoptosis as well as reactive oxygen species (ROS) production. These results suggest that oxLDL enhances ROS production possibly through lipoxygenase activity, leading to IGF-1 receptor downregulation and apoptosis. Furthermore, anti-CD36 scavenger receptor antibody markedly inhibited oxLDL induced IGF-1 receptor downregulation and apoptosis as well as ROS production. In conclusion, our data demonstrates that oxLDL downregulates IGF-1 receptor via redox-sensitive pathways that are distinct from oxLDL signaling through MAPK and PPAR involved pathways, however may involve CD36 dependent mechanism.
