Vascular CXCR4 Limits Atherosclerosis by Maintaining Arterial Integrity

Key Points

Key points are not available for this paper at this time.

Abstract

Our data clearly establish that vascular CXCR4 limits atherosclerosis by maintaining arterial integrity, preserving endothelial barrier function, and a normal contractile SMC phenotype. Enhancing these beneficial functions of arterial CXCR4 by selective modulators might open novel therapeutic options in atherosclerosis.
