Haplo-insufficiency of Profilin1 in vascular endothelial cells is beneficial but not sufficient to confer protection against experimentally induced atherosclerosis
2023-12-07
Abstract excerpt
Actin cytoskeleton plays an important role in various aspects of atherosclerosis, a key driver of ischemic heart disease. Actin-binding protein Profilin1 (Pfn1) is overexpressed in atherosclerotic plaques in human disease, and Pfn1, when partially depleted globally in all cell types, confers atheroprotection in vivo . This study investigates the impact of endothelial cell (EC)-specific partial loss of Pfn1 expres...
