Abstract excerpt
Genome-wide association studies have identified numerous susceptibility loci for spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD), yet translating non-coding genetic associations into molecular mechanisms remains a major challenge. In the present issue, Liu et al. provide functional evidence linking the SCAD-associated variant rs13128814 at the ZNF827 locus to the regulation of a vascular smooth muscle cell...
