Abstract:
We demonstrate that CD44 is selectively upregulated and functionally activated in lesion-prone aortic arch of apoE−/− mice before lesion development. Furthermore, gene expression profiling revealed a selective impact of CD44 on vascular gene expression in response to a proatherogenic environment illustrating that CD44 is an early mediator of atherogenesis.
