Abstract excerpt
This study investigates the impact of rapamycin and propranolol on cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs). Employing an unbiased transcriptomic analysis, we aimed to comprehensively elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying these drug effects. Mouse Brain Microvascular Endothelial Cells (mBMEC) deficient in Ccm3 were treated with propranolol or rapamycin and were analysed by RNA-seq and immunofluorescence....
