摘要


Smooth muscle (SM) 22α, an actin-binding protein, is down-regulated in atherosclerotic arteries. Disruption of SM22α promotes arterial inflammation through activation of reactive oxygen species nuclear factor (NF)-κB pathways. This study aimed to investigate the mechanisms by which SM22α regulates vascular inflammatory response. The ligation injury model of SM22α(-/-) mice displayed up-regulation of inflammatory molecules MCP-1, VCAM-1, and ICAM-1 in the carotid arteries. Similar results were discovered in human atherosclerotic samples. In vitro studies, overexpression of SM22α attenuated TNF-α-induced IκBα phosphorylation and degradation, accompanied by decreased NF-κB activity and reduced inflammatory molecule expression. Using coimmunoprecipitation, we found that SM22α interacted with and stabilized IκBα in quiescent VSMCs. Upon TNF-α stimulation, SM22α was phosphorylated by casein kinase (CK) II at Thr139, leading to dissociation of SM22α from IκBα, followed by IκBα degradation and NF-κB activation. Our findings demonstrate that SM22α is a phosphorylation-regulated suppressor of IKK-IκBα-NF-κB signaling cascades. SM22α may be a novel therapeutic target for human vascular diseases and other inflammatory conditions.
