Permissive role of miR-663 in induction of VEGF and activation of the ATF4 branch of unfolded protein response in endothelial cells by oxidized phospholipids

► miR-663 is induced in endothelial cells upon OxPAPC and tunicamycin treatment. ► miR-663 is necessary for induction of VEGF by OxPAPC. ► miR-663 is critically important for induction of transcription factor ATF4.
