The calcium binding protein S100β marks hedgehog-responsive resident vascular stem cells within vascular lesions
2020-05-21
Abstract excerpt
A hallmark of subclinical atherosclerosis is the accumulation of vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC)-like cells leading to intimal thickening. While medial SMCs contribute, the participation of hedgehog responsive resident vascular stem cells (vSCs) to lesion formation remains unclear. Using transgenic eGFP mice and genetic lineage tracing of S100β vSCs in vivo , we identified S100β/Sca1 cells derived from a S100β...
