ABSTRACT
The RNA-binding zinc finger protein 36 (ZFP36) family participates in numerous physiological processes including transition and differentiation through post-transcriptional regulation. ZFP36L1 is a member of the ZFP36 family. This study aimed to evaluate the role of ZFP36L1 in restenosis. We found that the expression of ZFP36L1 was inhibited in VSMC-phenotypic transformation induced by TGF-ß, PDGF-BB, and FBS and also in the rat carotid injury model. In addition, we found that the overexpression of ZFP36L1 inhibited the proliferation and migration of VSMCs and promoted the expression of VSMC contractile genes; whereas ZFP36L1 interference promoted the proliferation and migration of VSMCs and suppressed the expression of contractile genes. Furthermore, the RNA binding protein immunoprecipitation and double luciferase reporter gene experiments shows that ZFP36L1 regulates the phenotypic transformation of VSMCs through the posttranscriptional regulation of KLF16. Finally, our research results in the rat carotid balloon injury animal model further confirmed that ZFP36L1 regulates the phenotypic transformation of VSMCs through the posttranscriptional regulation of KLF16 and further plays a role in vascular injury and restenosis in vivo.
