Integrated Transcriptomic and Single-Cell Analyses Identify CCR2-Dependent Monocyte–Smooth Muscle Cell Crosstalk in Aortic Aneurysm
Background/Objectives: Aortic aneurysm (AA) involves inflammatory recruitment and vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) remodeling, but the cellular contribution of candidate chemokine receptors remains unclear. We prioritized reproducible AA-associated genes, localized their cellular sources, and tested whether monocyte...
