Platelet-derived growth factor induces Rad expression through Egr-1 in vascular smooth muscle cells.
BACKGROUND: Ras associated with diabetes (Rad) inhibits vascular lesion formation by reducing the attachment and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). However, the transcriptional regulation of Rad in VSMCs is unclear. METHODOLOGY AND PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: We found that Platelet-Derived G...
