ET-1 Promotes Differentiation of Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells into Osteoblasts through ETR, MAPK, and Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathways under Inflammatory Microenvironment.

abstract：:Leptin participates in the inflammatory responses in multiple cell types and animal models. Chronic cerebral hypoperfusion (CCH) induces inflammation in the central nervous system (CNS), which acts as one of the main reasons for CCH-induced white matter lesions (WMLs). But whether leptin participates in the pathogenes...
