ELUCIDATION OF THE UNIQUE TRANSLATION OF ANGIOGENIC SIGNALING BY AORTIC VALVE CELLS
… step in the progression of calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD). However, the process through which native valve cells, valve endothelial cells (VECs) and valve interstitial cells (VICs), form the neovascularization exhibited during CAVD is unclear due to their atypical translation of …
