Mir-195-5p targets Smad7 regulation of the Wnt/β-catenin pathway to promote osteogenic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells.
BMC Cardiovascular Disorders 2024 April 24
In this study, we sought to investigate the mechanisms of action of miR-195-5p in the osteogenic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), and thereby provide novel insights and a reference for the targeted therapy of arterial media calcification. VSMC differentiation was induced using sodium β-glycerophosphate, and we investigated the effects of transfecting cells with miR-195-5p mimics, vectors overexpressing Smad7, and the Wnt/β-catenin pathway inhibitor (KYA1797K) on VSMC differentiation by determining cell viability and apoptosis, and the mRNA and protein expression of factors associated with osteogenic differentiation and the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. The results revealed that miR-195-5p mimics enhanced the osteogenic differentiation of VSMCs induced by β-glycerophosphate, whereas the overexpression of Smad7 reversed this phenomenon. In addition, KYA1797K was found to promote the effects of Smad7 overexpression. In conclusion, by targeting, Smad7, miR-195-5p promotes the Wnt/β-catenin pathway. and thus the osteogenic differentiation of VSMCs. These findings will provide a reference for elucidating the mechanisms whereby miR-195-5p regulates osteogenic differentiation.
