Loss of the Coronary Artery Disease Risk Gene Leiomodin1 in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells Triggers Rapid Onset Coronary Atherosclerosis

Amr R. Salem, Ajay Kumar, Jaser Doja, Alshimaa Wally, Chunyu Ge, Sabrina Robichaud, Orazio J. Slivano, Susan H. Griffin, Brendan Marshall, Elizabeth Perry, J. Lee Franklin, Erin H. Seeley, Kunzhe Dong, Małgorzata Boczkowska, Gábor Csányi, , Joseph M. Miano

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.
