Silkworm pupae oil (SPO) has been reported to have various biological activities in improving blood circulation. However, the protective action of SPO against vascular disorders remains unknown. A new formulation of SPO was prepared through an esterification and saponification process. The composition of unsaturated fatty acids in silkworm pupae oil sodium salt (SPOS) was then analyzed by LC/MS to show α-linolenic acid (11.0%), linoleic acid (73.2%), palmitic acid (3.1%), oleic acid (12.0%), and stearic acid (0.7%). The in vitro studies were performed to find out the efficacy of SPOS on platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF-BB) induced vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) migration and proliferation. PDGF-BB (10 ng/mL) induced abnormal migration and proliferation of VSMCs, whereas exposure to SPOS (30 μg/mL) significantly reduced the PDGF-BB-induced cell migration and proliferation. The extracellular signal-regulated kinase1/2 (ERK1/2) and phosphorylation of ERK1/2 were determined by immunoblot analysis and the ERK1/2 phosphorylation in PDGF-BB-stimulated VSMCs was downregulated by SPOS (30 μg/mL) treatment. These results indicate that SPOS may be a helpful and useful agent as a functional food and drug against vascular disorders.
