This study shows that loss of Leiomodin1 in vascular smooth muscle cells causes rapid coronary atherosclerosis in mice, independent of actin nucleation, and highlights Thbs1 as a target for mitigating foam cell formation.

This study uses a Rosella-PLIN2 biosensor to track lipophagy in atherosclerosis, revealing cell-specific differences in lipid metabolism and immunometabolic interactions.
