ADAMTS-7, a member of the disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs (ADAMTS) family, was recently identified to be significantly associated genomewide with coronary artery disease. However, the mechanisms that link ADAMTS-7 and coronary artery disease risk remain elusive. We have previously demonstrated that ADAMTS-7 promotes vascular smooth muscle cell migration and postinjury neointima formation via degradation of a matrix protein cartilage oligomeric matrix protein. Because delayed endothelium repair renders neointima and atherosclerosis plaque formation after vessel injury, we examined whether ADAMTS-7 also inhibits re-endothelialization.

Center that produces knockout mice and carries out high-throughput phenotyping of each line in order to determine function of every gene in mouse genome. These mice will be preserved in repositories and made available to scientific community representing valuable resource for basic scientific research as well as generating new models for human diseases.
