Tanshinone I, tanshinone IIA, and cryptotanshinone: key bioactive components modulating vascular smooth muscle cell function

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) remain the leading cause of mortality among non-communicable diseases worldwide. Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), as the predominant cellular component of the tunica media, are essential for maintaining vascular homeostasis through phenotype-dependent regulation o...
