Atheroprone Flow Activates SMAD-FOXO1 to drive Endothelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition and Atherosclerosis
2024-11-29
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of death worldwide with atherosclerosis as the main underlying pathology. A hallmark of atherosclerotic lesion formation is endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndoMT) triggered by perturbed blood flow patterns at arterial bifurcations and curvatures. SMAD transcription factors (TFs), activated by bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) 9/10 or transfo...
