Abstract excerpt
AIMS: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) regulate gene expression and are involved in various biological processes, including vascular homeostasis. Macrophages (Mϕs) and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) play key roles in vascular health and disease. However, the communication between Mϕs and VSMCs via miRNAs is not well understood. This study explores the transfer of miR-146a-5p from Mϕs to VSMCs and its role in...
