Abstract
Background and Aims : S100A4, a small calcium binding protein, plays an important role in vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) phenotypic switch but its implication in atherosclerotic plaque development and particularly in SMC phenotypic plasticity is not clear yet. By neutralizing S100A4 using a monoclonal antibody, we have previously shown a reduction in overall atherosclerotic burden. However, this strategy did not distinguish the different contribution between SMCs or other S100A4-expressing cells (e.g.
