Figure 8

Diagrammatic sketch of the working hypothesis. Foxm1 promotes the TGF‐β1‐induced EndMT process in ECs through Smad2/3 signaling pathway and direct binding to and inducing the transcriptional activity of the Snail gene: an EndMT‐promoting transcription factor. ECs: endothelial cells; EndMT: endothelial‐mesenchymal transition; Foxm1: forkhead box M1; Sio A: Siomycin A; TGF‐β, transforming growth factor beta; TGF‐βR: transforming growth factor beta receptor; TSS: transcriptional start site
