Platelet Bone Morphogenetic Protein-4 Mediates Vascular Inflammation and Neointima Formation after Arterial Injury

The purpose of this study is to investigate the role of platelet bone morphogenetic proteins (BMP)-4 during vascular inflammation and remodeling in a mouse model of carotid wire injury. Transgenic mice with a platelet-specific deletion of BMP-4 (<i>BMP4<sup>Plt−/−</sup></i>)...
