Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: MicroRNA-22 (miR-22) has recently been reported to play a regulatory role during vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) differentiation from stem cells, but little is known about its target genes and related pathways in mature VSMC phenotypic modulation or its clinical implication in neointima formation following vascular injury. METHODS: We applied a wire-injury mouse model, and local delivery of...
