Endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition in cardiovascular diseases.
Endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) represents a dynamic process during which endothelial cells (ECs) loosen intercellular interactions, break down the basement membrane and undergo alterations in cell polarity to attain a mesenchymal phenotype. The intermediate stage of EndMT, known as partial EndMT, enables cells to exhibit partial functions and characteristics of both ECs and mesenchymal cells. This endows ECs with a unique physiological function and reflects the potential for reversing the EndMT process. In this article, we review the role of EndMT in diverse organs, the molecular network associated with EndMT, the occurrence of EndMT in cardiac physiological activities and pathophysiological damage, as well as the modulators of EndMT to offer novel perspectives for regulating EndMT-related physiological changes and disease progression.
期刊介绍：
Trends in Molecular Medicine (TMM) aims to offer concise and contextualized perspectives on the latest research advancing biomedical science toward better diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of human diseases. It focuses on research at the intersection of basic biology and clinical research, covering new concepts in human biology and pathology with clear implications for diagnostics and therapy. TMM reviews bridge the gap between bench and bedside, discussing research from preclinical studies to patient-enrolled trials. The major themes include disease mechanisms, tools and technologies, diagnostics, and therapeutics, with a preference for articles relevant to multiple themes. TMM serves as a platform for discussion, pushing traditional boundaries and fostering collaboration between scientists and clinicians. The journal seeks to publish provocative and authoritative articles that are also accessible to a broad audience, inspiring new directions in molecular medicine to enhance human health.
