The lipid phosphate phosphatase 3 (LPP3) degrades bioactive lysophospholipids including lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) and thereby terminates their signaling effects. While emerging evidence links LPA to atherosclerosis and vascular injury responses, little is known about the role of vascular LPP3. The goal of this study was to determine the role of LPP3 in the development of vascular neointima formation and smooth muscle cells (SMC) responses. We report that LPP3 is expressed in vascular SMC following experimental arterial injury. Using gain- and loss-of-function approaches, we establish that a major function of LPP3 in isolated SMC cells is to attenuate proliferation, (ERK) activity, Rho activation, and migration in response to serum and LPA. These effects are at least partially a consequence of LPP3-catalyzed LPA hydrolysis. Mice with selective inactivation of LPP3 in SMC display an exaggerated neointimal response to injury. Our observations suggest that LPP3 serves as an intrinsic negative regulator of SMC phenotypic modulation and inflammation after vascular injury, in part by regulating lysophospholipid signaling. These findings may provide a mechanistic link to explain the association between a PPAP2B polymorphism and coronary artery disease risk.
