Disturbed shear stress promotes atherosclerosis through TRIM21-regulated MAPK6 degradation and consequent endothelial inflammation
•Disturbed flow activates the ubiquitin‒proteasome degradation pathway of MAPK6 in endothelial cells, which is contingent on the binding of the ubiquitin ligase TRIM21 to MAPK6. | |
•Endothelial MAPK6 has an advantageous impact on decelerating plaque progression. | |
•MAPK6 regulates endothelial inflammation via the EGR1/CXCL12 axis. |
