Abstract
LncRNA HDAC11-AS1 (HDAC11-AS1) is the natural antisense transcript of HDAC11, a key enzyme for DNA histone deacetylation. We evaluated the role of HDAC11-AS1 in atherosclerosis. In this research, we found that HDAC11-AS1 ameliorated blood lipid levels and atherosclerosis in high fat-dieted apoE-/- mice by regulating HDAC11 negatively. The change in blood lipid levels is related to the expression of LPL, which is enhanced by HDAC11-AS1 through regulating adropin histone deacetylation in vitro and in vivo. In conclusion, HDAC11-AS1 plays an anti-atherogenic role through adropin to induce LPL expressions, thereby enhancing TG metabolism. The results are valuable for the further development of HDAC11-AS1 and its clinical applications. It provides a new clinical therapeutic target for cardiovascular disease treatment.
