Modulated smooth muscle cells accumulate late in human coronary atherosclerosis and are temporally and spatially linked to necrotic core formation
2025-02-20
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background and Aims</h4> Proliferation of arterial smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and their modulation to alternative mesenchymal phenotypes is a central mechanism in the growth of atherosclerotic lesions. The underlying processes have been studied extensively in mouse models, but a detailed analysis of when and where modulated SMCs accumulate in human atherosclerosis is lacking. The present study mapped modulate...
