近日,来自三军总医院的研究者们在Br J Pharmacol.杂志上发表了题为“Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor δ improves the features of atherosclerotic plaque vulnerability by regulating smooth muscle cell phenotypic switching”的文章,该研究结果表明血浆过氧化物酶体增殖物激活受体δ(PPARδ)水平低可能与动脉粥样硬化斑块的脆弱性有关,该发现为PPARδ对SMC表型转换的保护作用和改善动脉粥样硬化斑块易损性的机制提供了新的见解。
