Acetaminophen (APAP) is one of the most widely used drugs in the world. The literature shows that excessive or long-term use of APAP can lead to increased cardiovascular dysfunction. An acute increase in angiotensin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ) caused by APAP use in fatty liver disease may increase the risk and severity of vascular injury. However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Caveolin-1 (CAV1) is a broad-spectrum kinase inhibitor that significantly determines endothelial function. This study aimed to observe the effects of APAP on the vasculature in non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and to determine whether CAV1 could alleviate vascular oxidative stress and inflammation by targeting Ang Ⅱ or its downstream pathways. In this study, 7-week-old C57BL/6 male mice (18-20 g) were administered APAP by gavage after eight weeks of a high-fat diet. Any resulting vascular oxidative stress and inflammation were assessed. Levels of Ang Ⅱ, CAV1, and other related proteins were measured using ELISA and western blotting. In APAP-treated NAFLD mice, CAV1 expression was downregulated and Ang Ⅱ expression was upregulated compared to normal APAP-treated mice. In vitro, HUVECs were incubated with Ang Ⅱ (300 nM) for 48 h. Overexpression of CAV1 in HUVECs attenuated Ang Ⅱ-induced oxidative stress and inflammation and downregulated the expression of Protein kinase C (PKC) and p-P38/P38. After intervention with CAV1-siRNA, immunofluorescence results showed that the fluorescence intensity of PKC on mitochondria was further increased, and flow cytometry results showed that the mitochondrial membrane potential increased. PKC inhibitors alleviated Ang Ⅱ-induced endothelial injury. In conclusion, our findings confirmed that CAV1 exerts a protective effect against vascular injury by inhibiting oxidative stress and inflammation through the PKC/MAPK pathway. Therefore, restoration of CAV1 may have clinical benefits in reducing APAP-induced vascular damage in NAFLD patients.

D011493 Protein Kinase C An serine-threonine protein kinase that requires the presence of physiological concentrations of CALCIUM and membrane PHOSPHOLIPIDS. The additional presence of DIACYLGLYCEROLS markedly increases its sensitivity to both calcium and phospholipids. The sensitivity of the enzyme can also be increased by PHORBOL ESTERS and it is believed that protein kinase C is the receptor protein of tumor-promoting phorbol esters.
