Delineation of a thrombin receptor-stimulated vascular smooth muscle cell transition generating cells in the plaque-stabilising fibrous cap

James C K Taylor, Matthew D. Worssam, Sebnem Oc, Jordi Lambert, Krishnaa T. A. Mahbubani, Kirsty Foote, Allie Finigan, Yee‐Hung Chan, Nichola L. Figg, Murray C.H. Clarke, Martin R. Bennett, Helle Færk Jørgensen

The paper identifies a VSMC transition linked to fibrous cap formation in atherosclerosis and shows PAR1 as a potential therapeutic target.
