Endothelial Cell Heterogeneity in Carotid Plaque Calcification: An Exploratory Single-Cell Transcriptomic Study with Proteomic Support
An exploratory integrative analysis of the public single-cell RNA sequencing dataset GSE159677 characterized plaque-region-specific EC heterogeneity associated with carotid plaque calcification and nominated candidate pathways and molecules for further validation in larger cohorts and functional models.
