LncRNA GAS6-AS2 regulates vascular smooth muscle cell senescence through the miR-138-5p/AKT1 axis and serves as a diagnostic and prognostic marker for atherosclerosis
GAS6-AS2 is a potential diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for AS. It regulates ox-LDL-induced VSMC senescence and inflammatory response through the sponging of miR-138-5p to upregulate AKT1, providing a novel molecular target for AS treatment.
