TARGETING VASCULAR SMOOTH MUSCLE CELL TO IMPROVE ARTERIAL STIFFNESS
Hypertension and arterial aging engage a plethora of key signaling pathways that act in concert to induce vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) phenotypic changes leading to vascular degeneration and extracellular matrix (ECM) changes responsible for alterations of the mechanical properties of the vasc...
