MAGI2-AS3 markedly increased in AS. (A) Bar plot showed that the serum abundance of MAGI2-AS3 increased in AS patients (n = 106) compared to the HC group (n = 110). (B) ROC curve analysis indicated MAGI2-AS3 might serve as a diagnostic biomarker in AS. C, D. Spearman correlation between MAGI2-AS3 and CRP (C) or CIMT (D) was displayed. E. The abundance of MAGI2-AS3 increased with the addition of ox-LDL in ox-LDL HCASMCs (n = 5). Values were presented as mean ± SD. *P < 0.05, ***P < 0.001 vs. HC. AS, atherosclerosis; HC, healthy control; HCASMCs, human coronary artery smooth muscle cells; ROC, receiver operating characteristic
