Endothelial FN (Fibronectin) Deposition by α5β1 Integrins Drives Atherogenic Inflammation.

Conclusions- Taken together, our data demonstrate that endothelial α5 integrins drive oxLDL-induced FN deposition and early atherogenic inflammation. Additionally, we show that α5β1-dependent endothelial FN deposition mediates oxLDL-dependent endothelial inflammation and FN fibrillogenesis. PMID: 30354234 [PubMed - in process]
