RBMS1 Contributes to Early Arteriovenous Fistula Neointimal Remodeling Through Modulation of VSMC Phenotypic Responses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Postoperative arteriovenous fistulas exhibit increased RBMS1 in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). In experimental AVFs, RBMS1 overexpression aggravates, whereas deletion attenuates, neointimal hyperplasia. RBMS1 binds MPZL1 mRNA and promotes exon 5 skipping to generate MPZL1‐Δ5, which interacts with G3BP1 to activate AKT, driving VSMC proliferation,
