Media Outlets Highlight New Research Published in Hypertension by Dr. Satoru Eguchi and Lewis Katz School of Medicine Colleagues

New research by Satoru Eguchi, MD, PhD, FAHA, Professor of Physiology and Professor in the Cardiovascular Research Center, Sol Sherry Thrombosis Research Center, and Center for Metabolic Disease Research at the Lewis Katz School of Medicine at Temple University (LKSOM), and colleagues shows a novel mechanism by which abnormalities in mitochondrial fission in endothelial cells – the cells that line the inner surface of blood vessels – contribute to inflammation and oxidative stress in the cardiovascular system. The findings were published in the journal Hypertension and highlighted in media outlets such as Scienmag, Bioengineer.org, News-Medical.net, Genetic Engineering & Biotechnology News, and ScienceDaily.
