Abstract:
There is a high risk of re-stenosis after implanting blood vessels stent,the processes involves the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β)-Smad signaling pathways,epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and so on.The function of TGF-β-Smad signal pathways and EMT in vascular stent re-stenosis and the relevant mechanism were reviewed in this paper.
