Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: miR-145 is closely related to vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) phenotype transformation; however, the regulatory mechanisms through which miR-145 regulates the VSMC phenotype transformation under mechanical stretching are unclear. In this study, we evaluated the roles of miR-145 in VSMCs subjected to mechanical stretching in aortic dissection (AD). METHODS: The expression of miR-145 in the aortic...
