Retinoic acid signaling modulates smooth muscle cell phenotypic switching in atherosclerosis through epigenetic regulation of gene expression
2022-11-10
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>BACKGROUND</h4> Smooth muscle cells (SMCs) substantially contribute to the development of atherosclerosis through a process called “phenotypic switching.” Our previous work identified an SMC-derived intermediate cell type, termed “SEM” cells, which plays a crucial role in SMC transition to other cell types and in lesion development. Activation of retinoic acid (RA) signaling by all-trans re...
