Abstract
Carotid artery stenosis is the main cause of cerebral watershed infarction (CWI). In recent years, increasing attention has been given to treating this condition. The present study aimed to investigate how Verteporfin-eluting stent (VPES) modulates the YAP signaling pathway to inhibit restenosis of the carotid artery and alleviate CWI. Through transcriptome sequencing and functional experiments, it was found that VP could regulate the Yes-associated protein (YAP) signaling pathway and effectively suppress the proliferation and migration of smooth muscle cells (SMCs). Further investigation revealed that VPES could inhibit carotid artery restenosis through the YAP signaling pathway in a rabbit model, reducing the occurrence of CWI.
期刊介绍：
Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry: An International Journal for Chemical Biology in Health and Disease publishes original research papers and short communications in all areas of the biochemical sciences, emphasizing novel findings relevant to the biochemical basis of cellular function and disease processes, as well as the mechanics of action of hormones and chemical agents. Coverage includes membrane transport, receptor mechanism, immune response, secretory processes, and cytoskeletal function, as well as biochemical structure-function relationships in the cell.
In addition to the reports of original research, the journal publishes state of the art reviews. Specific subjects covered by Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry include cellular metabolism, cellular pathophysiology, enzymology, ion transport, lipid biochemistry, membrane biochemistry, molecular biology, nuclear structure and function, and protein chemistry.
