Cytomegalovirus and atherosclerosis
BioEssays, 1995AbstractFinding 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.

Remodeling of the vascular wall plays a central role in many physiological processes, but also in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis and restenosis. Atherosclerosis represents the major cause of death and disability in adult populations of Western societies.

Pathogenesis of atherosclerosis
Maturitas, 1996Atherosclerosis is a disease which affects large and medium-sized arteries. Typical features of atherosclerosis are accumulation of intra- and extracellular lipids, foam cell formation, proliferation of smooth muscle cells and accumulation of connective tissue.

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.

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.

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 ...

Tryptophan and Atherosclerosis
1996The 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 ...

Because of the statistical establishment of elevated blood lipids as a risk factor in the development of atherosclerotic heart disease, most of the attempts to regulate blood lipids by diet are centered on the fat in the diet. The levels of blood lipids and the course of experimental atherosclerosis can be affected by other dietary components such as ...
