Abstract:Objects
Carotid atherosclerotic plaques are the manifestation of atherosclerosis in the carotid arteries and can significantly increase the incidence of cerebrovascular disease. Macrophages and smooth muscle cells are crucial for their development. Our research aimed to reveal the mechanism of carotid atherosclerotic plaque formation.
Methods
The collected carotid plaques were processed to extract RNA and create a DNA library. After completing these steps, Single-nucleus RNA Sequencing analysis was performed… Show more
