Peripheral artery disease affects 200M+ people worldwide, and restoring blood flow isn’t enough to repair damaged muscle.
@WesternU researcher
@HaoYin20 raised $10k on ResearchHub to investigate why.
Now published as a Stage 1 Registered Report in
@RHubJournal, Hao's project will test whether Sirt6 loss in vessel-support cells triggers a “senescence secretome” that actively blocks muscle recovery after ischemia.
If confirmed, it could point to new therapeutic targets for one of the world's most common vascular diseases.
