A novel mouse model of in situ stenting [PDF]
AIMS: Animal models of stenting are mostly limited to larger animals or involve substantial abdominal surgery in rodents. We aimed to develop a simple, direct model of murine stenting. METHODS AND RESULTS: We designed a miniature, self-expanding, nitinol

ABSTRACT Background and Aim The dual burden of diabetes and myocardial infarction (MI) significantly increases morbidity and mortality, especially in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs). This study evaluates current treatment strategies, emphasizing the impact of limited access to medications, diagnostics, and specialized care.

Atherosclerosis remains the number one cause of death and disability worldwide. Atherosclerosis is treated by revascularization procedures to restore blood flow to distal tissue, but these procedures often fail due to restenosis secondary to neointimal ...

Haemodynamics and flow modification stents for peripheral arterial disease:a review [PDF]
Endovascular stents are widely used for the treatment of peripheral arterial disease (PAD). However, the development of in-stent restenosis and downstream PAD progression remain a challenge.

Wnt2 and WISP-1/CCN4 induce intimal thickening via promotion of smooth muscle cell migration [PDF]
Objective—Increased vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) migration leads to intimal thickening which acts as a soil for atherosclersosis, as well as causing coronary artery restenosis after stenting and vein graft failure. Investigating factors involved in

Effects of balloon injury on neointimal hyperplasia in steptozotocin-induced diabetes and in hyperinsulinemic nondiabetic pancreatic islet-transplanted rats. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The mechanisms of increased neointimal hyperplasia after coronary interventions in diabetic patients are still unknown. METHODS AND RESULTS: Glucose and insulin effects on in vitro vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation and ...

Predictive haemodynamics in a one-dimensional human carotid artery bifurcation. Part II: application to graft design [PDF]
A Bayesian surrogate modelling technique is proposed that may be able to predict an optimal bypass graft configuration for patients suffering with stenosis in the internal carotid artery (ICA). At the outset, this statistical technique is considered as a

Vascular Proteomics Reveal Novel Proteins Involved in SMC Phenotypic Change: OLR1 as a SMC Receptor Regulating Proliferation and Inflammatory Response [PDF]
Neointimal hyperplasia of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) plays a critical role in atherosclerotic plaque formation and in-stent restenosis, but the underlying mechanisms are still incompletely understood.
