Loss of the transcription factor RBPJ induces disease-promoting properties in brain pericytes
Pericytes are perivascular cells essential for blood-brain barrier maintenance. Here Diéguez-Hurtado et al. show that depletion of the transcription factor RBPJ in pericytes affects their molecular identity and disturbs endothelial cell behaviour, inducing the formation of vascular lesions in the br...

Sumario: | Pericytes are perivascular cells essential for blood-brain barrier maintenance. Here Diéguez-Hurtado et al. show that depletion of the transcription factor RBPJ in pericytes affects their molecular identity and disturbs endothelial cell behaviour, inducing the formation of vascular lesions in the brain. |
