Cell-type-specific insight: Coronary artery disease

Coronary artery disease

Cell-type-specific insight into the function of risk factors in coronary artery disease: Using single cell technology, a new study sheds light on the significance of genetic risk factors for, and the diversity of cells involved in, the development of coronary artery disease. The researchers analysed human atherosclerotic lesions to map the chromatin accessibility of more […]
