Yin Yang-1 (YY1) is a multifunctional
transcription factor that can repress the expression of many growth
factor, hormone, and cytokine genes implicated in atherogenesis. YY1
expression is activated in rat vascular smooth muscle cells shortly
after injury. YY1 DNA binding activity paralleled elevated protein
levels in the nucleus. Smooth muscle cell injury triggered the rapid extracellular release of immunoreactive fibroblast growth factor-2 (FGF-2). YY1 induction after injury was blocked by neutralizing antibodies directed against FGF-2. This growth factor increased YY1
mRNA and protein expression and stimulated YY1 binding and transcriptional activity. Overexpression of YY1 inhibited smooth muscle
cell replication. Immunohistochemical analysis demonstrated YY1
staining in medial smooth muscle cells, coincident with FGF-2 expression. Proliferating cell nuclear antigen staining, in
contrast, was confined mainly to the atherosclerotic intima. This is
the first demonstration that YY1 is induced by either injury or FGF-2, is differentially expressed in normal and diseased human arteries, and
that its overexpression inhibits vascular smooth muscle but not
endothelial cell replication.
