Endothelial cell RpL17-dependent translational control mediates intima-media thickening in response to disturbed flow
2026-05-25
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Carotid intima-media thickening (IMT) is a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). The large ribosomal subunit protein 17 (Rpl17) was recently reported as a CVD-associated gene; however, ribosomal mutations generally are not associated with vascular dysfunction. We have created a novel genetic model of decreased RpL17 in endothelial cells (EC) to determine how changes in endothelia...
