Role of p38 MAPK in Atherosclerosis and Aortic Valve Sclerosis [PDF]

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2018
Atherosclerosis and aortic valve sclerosis are cardiovascular diseases with an increasing prevalence in western societies. Statins are widely applied in atherosclerosis therapy, whereas no pharmacological interventions are available for the treatment of aortic valve sclerosis.

Inflammation and Reduced Parasympathetic Cardiac Modulation in Aortic-Valve Sclerosis

Applied Sciences, 2019
Aortic-valve sclerosis increases cardiovascular mortality risk and precedes aortic-valve stenosis, but its mechanisms are not well understood. The purpose of this study was to compare the cardiac autonomic modulation and inflammation markers between ...

Aortic valve replacement in systemic sclerosis [PDF]

Journal of Cardiovascular Medicine, 2015
Systemic sclerosis (scleroderma) is a chronic systemic autoimmune disease of the connective tissue, which can involve the cardiac valves, the mitral valve being more frequently affected, although involvement of the aortic valve has been rarely described.

Correlation between epicardial fat thickness and aortic valve sclerosis

Asian Cardiovascular and Thoracic Annals, 2018
Background Epicardial fat is a true visceral fat deposit with adverse effects through the secretion of numerous proinflammatory and proatherogenic cytokines. Previous studies showed an association between aortic valve sclerosis and coronary artery disease.

Optical coherence tomography and multiphoton microscopy offer new options for the quantification of fibrotic aortic valve disease in ApoE−/− mice

Scientific Reports, 2021
Aortic valve sclerosis is characterized as the thickening of the aortic valve without obstruction of the left ventricular outflow. It has a prevalence of 30% in people over 65 years old.

Extent of Coronary Artery Disease in Patients With Stenotic Bicuspid Versus Tricuspid Aortic Valves

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is the most common congenital cardiac malformation, which is often complicated by aortic valve stenosis (AoS). In tricuspid aortic valve (TAV), AoS strongly associates with coronary artery disease (CAD) with common ...
