ac Relative RNA expression levels of the contractile genes Myh11 (a), Acta2 (b) and Tagln (c) in the RVSMCs expressing a combination of shCon or shPrmt1 and myocardin. n = 3. Data represent the mean ± SEM. *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.001, Student’s t-test. dg Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays of the shCon- or shPrmt1-expressing A7R5 cells for histone modification markers in the promoter regions of myocardin (+1 ~ -452) and SRF ( + 1 to −509) genes. Values are expressed as a percentile of input. n = 3. Data represent the mean ± SEM. NS: not significant, **P < 0.01, ***P < 0.001. Student’s t-test. h Working model summarizing the regulatory mechanism of myocardin expression and maintenance of vascular smooth muscle function by Prmt1-mediated histone modification.
