The phenotypic transformation from differentiated to dedifferentiated vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) plays a crucial role in VSMC proliferation and vascular remodeling in many cardiovascular diseases including hypertension. Nesfatin-1, a multifunctional adipocytokine, is critically involved in the regulation of blood pressure. However, it is still largely unexplored whether nesfatin-1 is a potential candidate in VSMC phenotypic switch and proliferation in hypertension. Experiments were carried out in Wistar-Kyoto rats (WKY), spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR), human VSMCs and primary rat aortic VSMCs. We showed that the expression of nesfatin-1 was upregulated in media layer of the aorta in SHR and SHR-derived VSMCs. Nesfatin-1 promoted VSMC phenotypic transformation, accelerated cell cycle progression and proliferation. Knockdown of nesfatin-1 inhibited the VSMC phenotype switch from a contractile to a synthetic state, attenuated cell cycle progression and retarded VSMC proliferation in SHR-derived VSMCs. Moreover, nesfatin-1-activated PI3K/Akt/mTOR signaling was abolished by JAK/STAT inhibitor WP1066, and the increased phosphorylation levels of JAK2/STAT3 in response to nesfatin-1 were suppressed by inhibition of PI3K/Akt/mTOR in VSMCs. Pharmacological blockade of the forming feedback loop between PI3K/Akt/mTOR and JAK2/STAT3 prevented the proliferation of nesfatin-1-incubated VSMCs and primary VSMCs from SHR. Chronic intraperitoneal injection of nesfatin-1 caused severe hypertension and cardiovascular remodeling in normal rats. In contrast, silencing of nesfatin-1 gene ameliorated hypertension, phenotype switching, and vascular remodeling in the aorta of SHR. Therefore, our data identified nesfatin-1 as a key modulator in hypertension and vascular remodeling by facilitating VSMC phenotypic switching and proliferation.
