Our paper is published in @CircRes! Congratulations and thanks to all co-authors!
Mutchler & colleagues found #ET-3/#ETBR signaling in #lymphatic vessel dynamics is a novel pathogenic component & possible therapeutic target in #kidney disease. Learn more at ahajrnls.org/3WoU9az @ashleypitzer @Jianyong_zhong @EShelton24 @annetkiraboc1

1. The layman summary of our recent publication @CircRes 1. We study why some people's blood pressure goes up when they eat too much salt. We found that certain immune cells, called antigen-presenting cells (APCs), play an important role in this process. ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/…
