A new study highlights the role of the TIE2 protein in cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs), abnormal, fragile blood vessels in the brain that can lead to strokes, seizures, and haemorrhages. Researchers found that TIE2 acts as a key link between two major signalling pathways (MEKK3-KLF2/4 and PI3K) that drive the formation of these lesions. https://www.psychologs.com/a-protein-that-could-stop-brain-bleeds-scientists-discover-tie2-breakthrough/ #psychology fact
