Case Report: A heterozygous loss-of-function variant of the ERG gene in a family with vascular pathologies

BackgroundThe transcription factor ERG (erythroblast transformation-specific-related gene) has been identified as a key regulator of vascular function by suppressing inflammation in endothelial cells (ECs). Dysregulation of ERG due to genetic risk variants is linked to chronic inflammation in condit...
