Neointimal hyperplasia (NIH) plays a pivotal role in vascular restenosis after revascularization. We previously identified that chemokine‐like factor 1 (CKLF1) could aggravate NIH by arresting smooth muscle cells in G2/M phase and preventing apoptosis via phosphoinositide 3‐kinase/AKT/nuclear factor‐kappa B signaling. Here, we demonstrate that CKLF1 promotes monocyte adhesion and smooth muscle cell migration via VCAM‐1. Our work furthers our understanding of how CKLF1 contributes to NIH causality.
