Smooth muscle cells and fibroblasts in the ascending aorta exhibit minor differences between embryonic origins in angiotensin II-driven transcriptional alterations

Abstract Thoracic aortopathy is influenced by angiotensin II (AngII) and exhibits regional heterogeneity with the ascending aorta being particularly susceptible. In this region, smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and selected fibroblasts originate from the second heart field (SHF) and cardiac neural crest (...
