Cytomegalovirus and atherosclerosis

BioEssays, 1995
AbstractFinding that an avian herpesvirus can cause atherosclerosis in chickens prompted studies of human herpesviruses in human atherosclerosis. Antigens and nucleic acid sequences of cytomegalovirus (CMV), a widespread member of the herpesvirus family, were found in arterial lesions in human atherosclerosis, but infectious virus has not been observed.

THROMBOSIS AND ATHEROSCLEROSIS

British Medical Bulletin, 1978
From 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.

Leukotrienes and Atherosclerosis

Current Drug Targets, 2010
Evidence 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.

Epigenetics and atherosclerosis

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 2009
The 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 ...

Tryptophan and Atherosclerosis

1996
The association between hypercholesterolemia and atherosclerosis in humans is widely accepted (Goldstein and Brown, 1977; Steinberg, 1983; Nordoy and Goodnight, 1990). Some studies (Muldoon et al., 1990) have shown that a decrease in serum cholesterol in middle-aged subjects by diet, drugs or both, leads to a significant reduction of the incidence of ...

Atherosclerosis in alcoholics

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.
