Hypoxia Promotes Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Proliferation through microRNA-Mediated Suppression of Cyclin-Dependent Kinase Inhibitors

Regulation of vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation is essential to maintain vascular homeostasis. Hypoxia induces abnormal proliferation of VSMCs and causes vascular proliferative disorders, such as pulmonary hypertension and atherosclerosis. As several cyclin/cyclin-dependent kinase (CD...
