Background Chronic kidney disease (CKD) leads to a progressive decline in renal function, primarily due to deteriorating kidney structures. Vascular calcification is a key effect of CKD. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a significant role in the onset and progression of both cardiovascular illness and CKD.

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a life-threatening disease characterized by extensive membrane destruction in the vascular wall that is closely associated with vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) phenotypic switching. A thorough understanding of the changes in regulatory factors during VSMC phenotypic switching is essential for managing AAA therapy. In this study, we revealed the impact of NRF2 on the modulation of VSMC phenotype and the development of AAA based on single-cell RNA sequencing analysis.

Endothelial cell (EC) damage or dysfunction serves as the initial event in the pathogenesis of various cardiovascular diseases. Progenitor cells have been postulated to be able to differentiate into ECs, facilitate endothelial regeneration, and alleviate vascular pathological remodeling. However, the precise cellular origins and underlying mechanisms remain elusive.

MicroRNA-145 (miR-145) has been reported to downregulate the expression of tissue factor and factor XI in vitro and decrease venous thrombus formation in animal models. However, the association between miR-145 and risk of future venous thromboembolism (VTE) in the general population remains unknown. We investigated the association between plasma levels of miR-145 and risk of future VTE in a case-cohort study.

MicroRNAs are single-stranded non-coding RNAs that participate in post-transcriptional regulation of gene expression, it is involved in the regulation of apoptosis after myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury. For example, the alteration of mitochondrial structure is facilitated by MicroRNA-1 through the regulation of apoptosis-related proteins, such as Bax and Bcl-2, thereby mitigating cardiomyocyte apoptosis. MicroRNA-21 not only modulates the expression of NF-κB to suppress inflammatory signals but also activates the PI3K/AKT pathway to mitigate ischemia-reperfusion injury.
