Sex-Specific Regulation of Endothelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition (EndMT) During Atherosclerosis

Kelsey M. Watts, Katyayani Sukhavasi, Rebecca Hernandez…·Mete Civelek

The paper examines sex-specific regulation of EndMT in atherosclerosis using bulk RNA-seq and single-cell transcriptomics, identifying key regulators and stage-dependent differences.

Female gene networks are expressed in myofibroblast-like smooth muscle cells in vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques.

Ernest Diez Benavente, Santosh Karnewar, Michele F. Buono…·Hester M. den Ruijter

The paper identifies sex-stratified gene regulatory networks in atherosclerotic plaques, showing female plaques are enriched with myofibroblast-like smooth muscle cell networks.
