  abstract  = {Oxidative stress and inflammation play a pivotal role in the development of cardiovascular diseases, an ever-growing worldwide problem. As a non-pharmacological approach, diet, especially a flavonoid-rich diet, showed promising results in the reduction of cardiovascular diseases and alleviation of their symptoms. In this study, in vitro systems based on human microvascular endothelial cells (hmvEC) and human umbilical cord endothelial cells (HUVEC) were established to determine the effect of Healthberry 865\(^®\) (HB) and ten of its relating single anthocyanins on oxidative stress. Furthermore, five metabolites were used in order to examine the effect of anthocyanin's most common breakdown molecules. The results showed an effect of HB in both models after 24 h, as well as most of its single anthocyanins. Cyanidin-rutinoside, peonidin-galactoside, and petunidin-glucoside had a model-specific effect. For the metabolites, phloroglucinaldeyhde (PGA) showed an effect in both models, while vanillic acid (VA) only had an effect in HUVEC. When combined, a combination of several anthocyanins did not have a cumulative effect, except for combining glucosides in hmvEC. The combination of PGA and VA even revealed an inhibitive behavior. Overall, the study demonstrates the antioxidative effect of HB and several of its single anthocyanins and metabolites, which are partially model specific, and coincides with animal studies.},

  abstract  = {Atherosclerosis is an important risk factor in the development of cardiovascular diseases. In addition to increased plasma lipid concentrations, irregular/oscillatory shear stress and inflammatory processes trigger atherosclerosis. Inhibitors of the transcription modulatory bromo- and extra-terminal domain (BET) protein family (BETi) could offer a possible therapeutic approach due to their epigenetic mechanism and anti-inflammatory properties. In this study, the influence of laminar shear stress, inflammation and BETi treatment on human endothelial cells was investigated using global protein expression profiling by ion mobility separation-enhanced data independent acquisition mass spectrometry (IMS-DIA-MS). For this purpose, primary human umbilical cord derived vascular endothelial cells were treated with TNFα to mimic inflammation and exposed to laminar shear stress in the presence or absence of the BRD4 inhibitor JQ1. IMS-DIA-MS detected over 4037 proteins expressed in endothelial cells. Inflammation, shear stress and BETi led to pronounced changes in protein expression patterns with JQ1 having the greatest effect. To our knowledge, this is the first proteomics study on primary endothelial cells, which provides an extensive database for the effects of shear stress, inflammation and BETi on the endothelial proteome.},
