Increased generation of platelet-derived microparticles following percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty [PDF]
Platelet-derived microparticles (PMPs) which are produced during platelet activation contribute to coagulation1 and bind to traumatized endothelium in an animal model2. Such endothelial injury occurs during percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty

Endothelin-1 release from atherosclerotic plaque after percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty in stable angina pectoris and single-vessel coronary artery disease [PDF]
To assess the effects of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty on endothelin-1 (ET-1) release, we assessed ET-1 concentrations at different sites of the coronary circulation in patients submitted to elective procedures.
