Abstract excerpt
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is a leading cause of global mortality, with coronary artery disease (CAD) being the primary etiology. Vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) migration and proliferation, regulated by actin cytoskeletal dynamics, are pivotal to CAD pathogenesis. The integrin-focal adhesion-cytoskeleton signaling axis modulates these processes; however, its genetic contribution to SCD-CAD remains poorly...
