MicroRNA-134-5p Regulates Media Degeneration through Inhibiting VSMC Phenotypic Switch and Migration in Thoracic Aortic Dissection

Abnormal phenotypic switch, migration, and proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are hallmarks for pathogenesis of thoracic aortic dissection (TAD). In the current study, we identified miR-134-5p as a critical regulator controlling human VSMC phenotypic switch and migration to invest...
