During the last decade, the endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) process has
attracted considerable attention due to associations with the onset of certain diseases, such …

The process named endothelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition (EndMT) was observed for the
first time during the development of the chicken embryo several decades ago. Of interest …

Background—The vascular remodeling responsible for pulmonary arterial hypertension
(PAH) involves predominantly the accumulation of α-smooth muscle actin–expressing …

Central nervous system (CNS) trauma activates a persistent repair response that leads to
fibrotic scar formation within the lesion. This scarring is similar to other organ fibrosis in …

Unique insights for the reprograming of cell lineages have come from embryonic
development in the ascidian Ciona, which is dependent upon the transcription factors Ci …

Knowledge pertaining to the involvement of transforming growth factor β (TGF-β) and bone
morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is …

Abstract Background/Aims: Endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) plays significant
roles under various pathological conditions including cardiovascular diseases, fibrosis, and …

Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) are involved in the maintenance of endothelial
homoeostasis and in the process of new vessel formation. Experimental and clinical studies …

Endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndoMT) is the process of endothelial cells
progressively losing endothelial-specific markers and gaining mesenchymal phenotypes. In …

Small-diameter tissue-engineered vascular grafts (sdTEVGs) have garnered significant
