P4.32 INACTIVATION OF SERUM RESPONSE FACTOR CONTRIBUTES TO DECREASE VASCULAR MUSCULAR TONE AND ARTERIAL STIFFNESS IN MICE
Rationale: Vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) phenotypic modulation plays an important role in arterial stiffening associated with ageing. Serum response factor (SRF) is a major transcription factor regulating smooth muscle (SM) genes involved in maintenance of the contractile state of VSMCs. Objec...
