circ_CHFR regulates ox-LDL-mediated cell proliferation, apoptosis, and EndoMT by miR-15a-5p/EGFR axis in human brain microvessel endothelial cells

Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) is a significant risk factor for various brain vascular diseases. Circular RNA (circRNA) is involved in the pathogenesis of brain vascular diseases. This study revealed the roles of circ_CHFR in ox-LDL-mediated cell proliferation, apoptosis, and endothelial-...
