Abstract
Circular RNAs are associated with cardiovascular disease, including coronary artery disease, but the mechanisms have not been completely elucidated. We found a new protein, circBTBD7-420aa, encoded by hsa_circ_0000563. Our results suggest that circBTBD7-420aa may inhibit the abnormal proliferation and migration of human coronary artery smooth muscle cells by promoting SLC3A2 degradation through the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. In addition, we constructed engineered exosomes loaded with circBTBD7-420aa that can target vascular smooth muscle cells by modifying peptide fragments targeting osteopontin. This study suggests that circBTBD7-420aa may inhibit the progression of atherosclerosis and serve as a new target for the diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery disease.
期刊介绍:
JACC: Basic to Translational Science is an open access journal that is part of the renowned Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC). It focuses on advancing the field of Translational Cardiovascular Medicine and aims to accelerate the translation of new scientific discoveries into therapies that improve outcomes for patients with or at risk for Cardiovascular Disease. The journal covers thematic areas such as pre-clinical research, clinical trials, personalized medicine, novel drugs, devices, and biologics, proteomics, genomics, and metabolomics, as well as early phase clinical trial methodology.
