NEAT1 regulates VSMC differentiation and calcification in as long noncoding RNA NEAT1 enhances phenotypic and osteogenic switching of vascular smooth muscle cells in atherosclerosis via scaffolding EZH2.

Abstract excerpt

Atherosclerosis (AS) is a significant contributor to cardio-cerebrovascular ischemia diseases, resulting in high mortality rates worldwide. During AS, vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) play a crucial role in plaque formation by undergoing phenotypic and osteogenic switching. Long noncoding RNA nuclear paraspeckle assembly transcript 1 (NEAT1) has previously been identified as a nuclear regulator that promotes...
