S-nitrosylation of AMPKγ impairs coronary collateral circulation and disrupts VSMC reprogramming
EMBO Reports, 2023 Collateral circulation is essential for blood resupply to the ischemic heart, which is dictated by the contractile phenotypic restoration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). Here we investigate whether S-nitrosylation of AMP-activated protein kinase (

Biomarkers of coronary endothelial health: correlation with invasive measures of collateral function, flow and resistance in chronically occluded coronary arteries and the effect of recanalization [PDF]
, 2016 Objectives: In the presence of a chronically occluded coronary artery, the collateral circulation matures by a process of arteriogenesis; however, there is considerable variation between individuals in the functional capacity of that collateral network ...

Coronary dominance pattern: An angiography-based preliminary report from Eastern India
Journal of Indian College of Cardiology, 2023 We did a retrospective analysis of 102 coronary angiograms for coronary dominance. Right-dominant circulation was seen in 62 (60.8%) patients, whereas left-dominant and codominant circulation was seen in 25 (24.5%) and 15 (14.7%) patients, respectively ...

ACE-inhibition prevents postischemic coronary leukocyte adhesion and leukocyte-dependent reperfusion injury [PDF]
, 1997 Objective: Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN), retained in the microvascular bed, can contribute to postischemic myocardial reperfusion injury. Since a beneficial effect of ACE-inhibition on reperfusion injury has been reported, we investigated the ...
