Recent studies revealed LRRC8A to be an essential component of volume‐regulated anion channel (VRAC), which regulates cellular volume homeostasis. However, evidence for the contribution of LRRC8A‐dependent VRAC activity in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) is still lacking, and the relevant functional role of LRRC8A in VSMCs remains unknown. The primary goal of this study was to elucidate the role of LRRC8A in VRAC activity in VSMCs and the functional role of LRRC8A in cerebrovascular remodeling during hypertension. siRNA‐mediated knockdown and adenovirus‐mediated overexpression of LRRC8A were used to elucidate the electrophysiological properties of LRRC8A in basilar smooth muscle cells (BASMCs). A smooth muscle–specific overexpressing transgenic mouse model was used to investigate the functional role of LRRC8A in cerebrovascular remodeling. LRRC8A is essential for volume‐regulated chloride current (I Cl, Vol) in BASMCs. Overexpression of LRRC8A induced a voltage‐dependent Cl− current independently of hypotonic stimulation. LRRC8A regulated BASMCs proliferation through activation of WNK1/PI3K‐p85/AKT axis. Smooth muscle‐specific upregulation of LRRC8A aggravated Angiotensin II‐induced cerebrovascular remodeling in mice. LRRC8A is an essential component of VRAC and is required for cell volume homeostasis during osmotic challenge in BASMCs. Smooth muscle specific overexpression of LRRC8A increases BASMCs proliferation and substantially aggravates basilar artery remodeling, revealing a potential therapeutic target for vascular remodeling in hypertension. The schematic diagram for LRRC8A role in cerebrovascular remodeling. LRRC8A is an essential component of VRAC in BASMCs. During the challenge of hypertension, the activated LRRC8A channel‐mediated‐Cl− efflux increases WNK1 phosphorylation, which in turn triggers AKT phosphorylation and promotes BASMCs proliferation, eventually exacerbates hypertension‐induced cerebrovascular vascular remodeling.
