Epigenetics and atherosclerosis
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 2009The contribution of epigenetic mechanisms to cardiovascular diseases remains poorly understood. Hypomethylation of genomic DNA is present in human atherosclerotic lesions and methylation changes also occur at the promoter level of several genes involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, such as extracellular superoxide dismutase, estrogen ...

Leukotrienes and Atherosclerosis
Current Drug Targets, 2010Evidence from experimental and genetic studies suggest the existence of a potential link between the leukotrienes (LT) signalling cascade, and the pathogenesis/progression of atherosclerosis and its serious consequences such as acute myocardial infarction (AMI), stroke, aortic aneurysms, and intimal hyperplasia.

Herpesvirus-induced Atherosclerosis
Diabetes, 1981Atherosclerosis extraordinarily like the chronic human disease was reported as a consequence of Marek's disease herpesvirus (MDV) infection in specific pathogen-free (SPF) chickens. This arterial disease was induced not only in hypercholesterolemic but also in normocholesterolemic chickens by infection with MDV.

Atherosclerosis, biomarkers of atherosclerosis and Alzheimer's disease
International Journal of Neuroscience, 2013Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most prevalent type of dementia, involving progressive deterioration of neuronal networks. Although the pathophysiological mechanism of AD is not fully elucidated, apart from β-amyloid and tau protein, a diverse number of factors such as cardiovascular risk factors, inflammation, and lipids metabolism may play a ...

Atherosclerosis and clinical atherosclerosis
2011Atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases are the major cause of mortality for both men and women in the industrial as well as the developing world, with the majority of deaths occurring in developing countries [1,2]. In addition, diseases due to atherosclerosis such as coronary artery disease (CAD) causing coronary heart disease (CHD), cerebrovascular ...

THROMBOSIS AND ATHEROSCLEROSIS
British Medical Bulletin, 1978From the clinical point of view the most important end results of atherosclerosis are stenosis and occlusion of the affected artery. A prerequisite for this is a degree of plaque growth sufficient to encroach significantly on the integrity of the vessel lumen.

Forensic Science International, 1995
A cohort of alcoholics who underwent a medico-legal autopsy during a 5-year period was compared with non-alcoholic controls who did not differ from the alcoholics in selection criteria. The degree of atherosclerosis in the coronary arteries and the aorta was examined.
