However, the intercellular signaling pathway that CTGF takes for vascular remodeling, such as VSMC phenotype transition, has not been fully elucidated. This study employed a combination of in vivo and in vitro tests to examine VSMC phenotype and reveal the role of CTGF in vascular remodeling induced by angiotensin II (Ang II). The in vitro experiments showed that Ang II upregulated CTGF expression in rat VSMCs in a concentration\u2010 and time\u2010dependent manner. Genetic depletion of CTGF with siRNA against rat\n                    <jats:italic>Ccn2<\/jats:italic>\n                    prevented Ang II\u2013induced autophagic flux impairment. In addition, Ang II\u2013induced phenotypic switch was inhibited by 3\u2010MA, an inhibitor of autophagy, suggesting CTGF is involved in Ang II\u2013induced phenotypic switch via regulating autophagic flux impairment. In addition, this CTGF\u2010dependent autophagy regulation was involved in Ang II\u2013induced mitochondrial dysfunction in VSMCs. Moreover, anti\u2010CTGF antibody treatment inhibited neointimal hyperplasia in a mouse model of carotid artery ligation\u2010induced neointima formation suggesting a novel perspective role of CTGF in the phenotype switching of VSMCs and the neointimal proliferation process. These results offer insights into the effect of anti\u2010CTGF on preventing autophagic flux impairment and VSMC phenotype switching caused by mitochondrial dysfunction in vascular diseases associated with aberrant VSMC proliferation.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1155\/cdr\/5400858","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,2]],"date-time":"2026-09-02T11:04:41Z","timestamp":1788347081000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Therapeutic Implication of Anti\u2010CTGF in Neointimal Hyperplasia via Regulating Mitochondrial Dysfunction and VSMC Phenotypic Switch"],"prefix":"10.1155","volume":"2026","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3589-1945","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ae-Rang","family":"Hwang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2023-8636","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Chang-Hoon","family":"Woo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6965-3275","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Young Jin","family":"Kang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,9,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_11_1_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1124\/pr.115.010652"},{"key":"e_1_2_11_2_2","volume-title":"Mechanisms of Vascular Disease: A Reference Book for Vascular Specialists","author":"Wilson D.
