Snail Is a Direct Target of Hypoxia-inducible Factor 1α (HIF1α) in Hypoxia-induced Endothelial to Mesenchymal Transition of Human Coronary Endothelial Cells

Abstract excerpt

Endothelial to mesenchymal transition (EndMT) was originally described in heart development where the endocardial endothelial cells that line the atrioventricular canal undergo an EndMT to form the endocardial mesenchymal cushion that later gives rise to the septum and mitral and tricuspid valves. In the postnatal heart specifically, endothelial cells that originate from the endocardium maintain increased...
