JIB-04 inhibited the proliferation, migration, and contractile phenotype of HASMCs by blocking autophagic flux and probably regulated the neointima. JIB-04, an inhibitor of Jumonji C domain-containing demethylases (JMJDs), induced cell cycle arrest in G2/M phase and inhibited the proliferation, migration, and contractile phenotype of HASMCs by regulating the methylation of H3K36. In addition, JIB-04 inhibited the fusion of autophagosomes and lysosomes by downregulating STX17 and RAB7, which further restrained the proliferation, migration, and contractile phenotype of HASMCs, ultimately protecting against neointima formation.
