Backgroud The present study aimed to investigate the function and regulatory mechanisms of lncRNA KCNQ1OT1 in vascular smooth muscle cells under oxida-tion low lipoprotein stimulation.Methods RNA sequencing was used to detect transcriptome changes of vascular smooth muscle cells treated with oxidation low lipoprotein. KCNQ1OT1, miR-196a-5p, and FOXO1 expression levels in VSMCs after oxidation low lipoprotein treatment were assessed using qRT-PCR and western blotting. RNA immunopre-cipitation, RNA pull-down, and dual-luciferase reporter assay were used to confirm the interaction among lncRNA KCNQ1OT1, miR-196a-5p, and FOXO1. The func-tions of KCNQ1OT1, miR-196a-5p, and FOXO1 were analyzed by CCK-8 and flow cytometry. The serum samples of high fat-feeding mice and atherosclerosis patients were collected, and the levels of KCNQ1OT1 and miR-196a-5p were analyzed.Results In vitro expression of KCNQ1OT1 and FOXO1 decreased in VSMCs treated with oxidation low lipoprotein, accompanied by overexpression of miR-196a-5p. As a ceRNA, KCNQ1OT1 positively regulated FOXO1 and imparted a negative reg-ulatory effect on miR-196a-5p. Interference KCNQ1OT1/miR-196a-5p/FOXO1 could change roliferation/apoptosis imbalance in VSMCs under oxidation low lipo-protein stimulation. Higher levels of KCNQ1OT1 and lower levels of miR-196a-5p can be found in the thoracic aorta tissues of high fat-feeding mice and serum sam-ples from individuals with carotid atherosclerosis.Conclusion Aberrant expression of KCNQ1OT1/miR-196a-5p/FOXO1 pathway mediated oxidation low lipoprotein-induced proliferation/apoptosis imbalance in VSMCs.(c) 2022 Elsevier Inc.
