Hypothesis-generating for circ_0003204 as an atherosclerosis target; leaves open human translation of the miR-330-5p/TLR4/NF-κB axis.
Knockdown of circ_0003204 protects against ox-LDL-induced endothelial injury by regulating the miR-330-5p/TLR4/NF-κB pathway, highlighting a potential novel target for atherosclerosis.
