Proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) contributes to the progression of athero¬sclerotic plaques. Calcium channel blockers have been shown to reduce VSMC proliferation, but the underlying molecular mechanism remains unclear. p21(Waf1/Cip1) is a potent inhibitor of cell cycle progression. Here, we demonstrate that amlodipine (10−6 to 10−8 M) activates de novo synthesis of p21(Waf1/Cip1) in vitro. We show that amlodipine‐dependent activation of p21(Waf1/Cip1) involves the action of the glucocorticoid receptor (GR) and C/EBP‐α. The underlying pathway apparently in¬volves the action of mitogen‐activated protein kinase or protein kinase C, but not of extracellular signal‐related kinase or changes of intracellular calcium. Amlodipine‐induced p21(Waf1/Cip1) promoter activity and expres¬sion were abrogated by C/EBP‐α antisense oligonucle¬otide or by the GR antagonist RU486. Amlodipinedependent inhibition of cell proliferation was partially reversed by RU486 at 10−8 M (58% ±29%), antisense oligonucleotides targeting C/EBP‐α (91%±26%), or antisense mRNAs targeting p21(Waf1/Cip1) (96%±32%, n=6);scrambled antisense oligonucleotides or those directed against C/EBP‐β were ineffective. The data suggest that the anti‐proliferative action of amlodipine is achieved by induction of the p21 (Waf1/Cip1) gene, which may explain beneficial covert effects of this widely used cardiovascular therapeutic drug beyond a more limited role as a vascular relaxant.—Ziesche, R., Petkov, V., Lambers, C., Erne, P., Block, L.‐H.
