A mesenchymal stem cell-based approach for investigating cardiovascular disease-related genetic variants
Genome wide-association studies (GWASs) have identified many loci that contribute to coronary artery disease (CAD). A huge challenge of the post-GWAS era is identifying the biological pathways risk variants act through to contribute to disease. I explored the use of MSCs as a model to investigate th...
