Ultrasound methods of imaging atherosclerotic plaque in carotid arteries: examinations using contrast agents

Journal of Ultrasonography, 2020
The primary technique for detecting the presence and monitoring the development of carotid atherosclerotic plaque is ultrasound. The development of ultrasound techniques has made it possible to precisely visualise not only blood flow, but also vessel ...

Contribution of Gli1+ Adventitial Stem Cells to Smooth Muscle Cells in Atherosclerosis and Vascular Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Gli1+ adventitial stem cells (ASCs) have been thought to generate smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in atherosclerosis. Using a dual‐recombinase lineage tracing to exclude ectopic labeling, Wang et al. found that Gli1+ ASCs do not contribute to SMCs in atherosclerotic plaques.

Lysophosphatidic acid triggers mast cell-driven atherosclerotic plaque destabilization by increasing vascular inflammation[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2013
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a bioactive lysophospholipid, accumulates in the atherosclerotic plaque. It has the capacity to activate mast cells, which potentially exacerbates plaque progression.

The Role of Costimulatory Receptors of the Tumour Necrosis Factor Receptor Family in Atherosclerosis [PDF]

, 2011
Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease that is mediated by both the innate and adaptive immune responses. T lymphocytes, that together with B cells are the cellular effectors of the adaptive immune system, are currently endowed with crucial ...

In Situ Lipoprotein‐seeking Dye for in Vivo Real‐Time Imaging of Lipid Dysregulation Diseases

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops lipoprotein‐seeking NIR‐II dyes that specifically bind circulating lipoproteins. These dyes form ultra‐stable complexes with endogenous lipoprotein, enabling real‐time, high‐contrast imaging of fatty liver and atherosclerotic plaques. Tunable binding kinetics allow customized imaging windows.

Vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques

Medical academic journal, 2009
The initial pathogenesis moment in development of an acute sharp coronary thrombosis is break, so-called vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque. The combination of an inflammation, distraction a collagenic skeleton, refind tire covers plaque and a spasm of arteries leads to break of a surface plaque therefore process thrombogenesis is started, leading ...

Advanced Detection and Therapeutic Monitoring of Atherosclerotic Plaque Using CD36-Targeted Lipid Core Probe

Pharmaceutics
Background: Atherosclerotic diseases, including coronary heart disease and cerebrovascular disease, are leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Atherosclerosis is a chronic vascular condition marked by the accumulation of lipid plaque within

ATHEROSCLEROTIC PLAQUE OF RENAL VASA RECTA ON PATIENT WITH CALCIUM STONE

Jurnal Urologi Indonesia, 2013
Objective: We would like to identify whether atherosclerotic plaque inside renal vasa recta correlates with the formation of calcium stone. Material & Method: Samples are taken from kidney tissue removed by nephrectomy due to stone and non-stone disease.

Monocyte‐Differentiation‐Activated Fluorescent “Scout” Probe for Precise in Vivo Detection of Vulnerable Plaque

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An innovative monocyte‐differentiation‐activated fluorescent “scout” probe (MDAF) leverages the inherent chemotaxis of monocytes toward vulnerable plaques (VAP) to enable efficient targeted delivery while achieving spatiotemporally controllable activation of its AIE fluorescent signals with the dynamic differentiation of monocytes, providing an ...
