Efferocytic Defects in Early Atherosclerosis Are Driven by GATA2 Overexpression in Macrophages
23 Oct 2020
Abstract excerpt
The loss of efferocytosis – the phagocytic clearance of apoptotic cells – is an initiating event in atherosclerotic plaque formation. While the loss of macrophage efferocytosis is a prerequisite for advanced plaque formation, the transcriptional and cellular events in the pre-lesion site that drive these defects are poorly defined. Transcriptomic analysis of macrophages recovered from early-stage human...
