Filamin A Regulates Cardiovascular Remodeling

Sashidar Bandaru et al.

Summary: Filamin A (FLNA) plays a crucial role in cell motility and vascular development by stabilizing actin networks and interacting with transcription factors and cell signaling molecules. Mutations in FLNA can lead to cardiovascular malformations in humans, highlighting its importance in cardiovascular health. The interaction of FLNA with transcription factors and cell signaling molecules dictates its function in vascular cells.
