Endothelial CCR6 Expression Due to FLI1 Deficiency Contributes to Vasculopathy Associated with Systemic Sclerosis
2021-06-24
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background:</bold> We have recently demonstrated that serum CCL20 levels positively correlate with mean pulmonary arterial pressure in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc). Considering a proangiogenic effect of CCL20 on endothelial cells via CCR6, the CCL20/CCR6 axis may contribute to the development of SSc vasculopathy. Therefore, we explored this hypothesis using clinical samp...
