Galectin-3- Mediated Transdifferentiation of Pulmonary Artery Endothelial Cells Contributes to Hypoxic Pulmonary Vascular Remodeling
Background/Aims: Vascular muscularity is a key event in vessel remodeling during pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH). Endothelial-mesenchymal transdifferentiation (EndMT) has been increasingly reported to play a role in disease occurrence. Galectin-3, a carbohydrate-binding protein regulates cell pr...
