Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: P.R4810K of RNF213 (mysterin: rs112735431), which is an AAA(+) ATPase, is the susceptibility polymorphism for moyamoya disease (MMD) in East Asians. However, the role of RNF213 R4810K in the etiology of MMD is unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS: To clarify the role of RNF213 in known angiogenic pathways, RNF213 expression was analyzed in endothelial cells (ECs) treated with several angiogenic and...
