Abstract
Serum Response Factor (SRF) is a key regulatory transcription factor present in various cell types throughout the body, playing essential roles in cellular functions under physiological conditions. Mutations and abnormal expression of SRF have been linked to the development of various diseases and disorders. Recent evidence highlights that post-translational modifications (PTMs) are critical for regulating SRF function in different cell types and contribute to disease pathogenesis. Targeting SRF-related PTMs is emerging as a promising therapeutic approach for treating SRF-associated diseases. In this review, we summarize recent advances in understanding SRF PTMs and their underlying regulatory mechanisms. We also explore the implications of SRF-PTM in related cardiovascular and neurological diseases and their potential for therapeutic intervention. This information underscores the significance of SRF PTMs in both physiological and pathological contexts, enhancing our understanding of disease mechanisms and paving the way for the development of novel therapeutic strategies.
