Recently, long non‐coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been revealed to mediate smooth muscle dysfunction in thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA). LncRNA HOXA‐AS2 has been proposed to engage in the regulation of diverse diseases. However, its function in TAA remains unknown. This study aimed to reveal the role and mechanism of HOXA‐AS2 in VSMCs which were implicated in TAA formation.
