Targeting chondroitin synthase 1 attenuates hyperplastic arterial remodeling via gene therapy

Chondroitin sulfate glycosaminoglycans accumulate excessively in the extracellular matrix during pathological remodeling and exacerbate cardiovascular deterioration. Here we show that chondroitin synthase 1 (CHSY1) is the primary enzyme responsible for chondroitin sulfate synthes...
