Abstract excerpt
Intimal hyperplasia, a pathological form of vascular remodeling, is a hallmark of several cardiovascular diseases, including restenosis following angioplasty. Vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) phenotypic transition plays a critical role in the development of vascular intimal hyperplasia. This study investigates the role of the NOD-like receptor pyrin domain 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome and its downstream effector,...
