Abstract—Oncostatin M (OSM), a cytokine first identified from activated monocytes and T lymphocytes, is one of the most potent autocrine growth factor for AIDS and Kaposi’s sarcoma. Little is known about the effects of OSM on normal vascular cells. We thus exposed human aortic smooth muscle cells (hASMCs) to OSM, examined cell proliferation and morphology, and determined interleukin-6 (IL-6) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) expression. OSM had a weak antiproliferative effect. After a 4-day incubation with 100 ng/mL OSM, cell count decreased to 69±3% of control. However, OSM induced striking changes in hASMC morphology, characterized by a polyclonal shape, in contrast to the spindle morphological feature of control hASMCs. OSM stimulated the release of IL-6 by hASMCs in a dose-dependent way; after a 48-hour exposure, values were 8.5±0.7, 29.7±3.5, 50.9±4.4, and 73.8±7.6×103 U/mL (n=6) at OSM concentrations of 0, 1, 10, and 100 ng/mL, respectively. OSM induced marked expression of COX-2 protein and mRNA. Leukem...
