Oxidative stress caused by phorbol esters or reactive oxygen up-regulates the class A scavenger receptor (SR-A) in human smooth muscle cells (SMC), which normally do not express this receptor. The increase in SR-A expression correlates with activation of the redox-sensitive transcription factors activating protein-1 c-Jun and CCAAT enhancer-binding protein beta. Here we show that coincubation of SMC with macrophages or oxidized low density lipoproteins (LDL) from macrophage-conditioned medium activates these game regulatory pathways and stimulates SR-A expression. The increased SR-A gene transcription induced by cell-oxidized LDL up-regulated SR-A mRNA and increased by 30-fold the uptake of acetyl LDL, a ligand for the SR-A. Copper-oxidized LDL also increased SR-A receptor expression. Oxidized LDL with a lipid peroxide level of 80-100 nmol/mg of LDL protein and an electrophoretic mobility similar to 1.5 times that of native LDL exhibited the greatest bioactivity. Inhibition of calcium flux suppressed SR-A induction by oxidized LDL. Conversely, calcium ionophore greatly enhanced SR-A up-regulation by oxidized LDL or other treatments that promote intracellular oxidative stress. This enhancement was dependent upon concurrent up-regulation of SMC cyclooxygenase-2 expression and activity and was blocked by the cyclooxygenase-2 inhibitors NS-398 and Resveratrol. In THP-I cells, oxidized LDL induced monocyte-to-macrophage differentiation and increased SR-A expression. These findings support a role for mildly oxidized LDL in the redox regulation of macrophage differentiation and SR-A expression and suggest that increased vascular oxidative stress may contribute to the formation of both SMC and macrophage foam cells.
