Systematic testing of literature reported genetic variation associated with coronary restenosis: results of the GENDER Study. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Coronary restenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention still remains a significant problem, despite all medical advances. Unraveling the mechanisms leading to restenosis development remains challenging.

Coronary stents are among the most common therapies worldwide. Despite significant improvements in the biocompatibility of these devices throughout the last decades, they are prone, in as many as 10–20% of cases, to short- or long-term failure.

BackgroundCoronary restenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) still remains a significant limitation of the procedure. The causative mechanisms of restenosis have not yet been fully identified.

Drug- and Gene-eluting Stents for Preventing Coronary Restenosis. [PDF]
Coronary artery disease (CAD) has been reported to be a major cause of death worldwide. Current treatment methods include atherectomy, coronary angioplasty (as a percutaneous coronary intervention), and coronary artery bypass.

Changes of Serum CTRP12 in Patients With Coronary Artery Disease After the Treatment of Percutaneous Coronary Intervention and Its Relationship With In-Stent Restenosis. [PDF]
Serum CTRP12 levels are significantly lower in CAD patients, and significant correlate to disease severity and dynamic changes after PCI. They may serve as a potential biomarker for diagnosing CAD and predicting ISR occurrence. ABSTRACT Background C1q/tumor necrosis factor‐related protein 12 (CTRP12) plays a protective role in coronary artery disease ...

Inhibition of in-stent stenosis by oral administration of bindarit in porcine coronary arteries [PDF]
<p><b>Objective:</b> We have previously demonstrated that bindarit, a selective inhibitor of monocyte chemotactic proteins (MCPs), is effective in reducing neointimal formation in rodent models of vascular injury by reducing smooth ...

Restenosis After Coronary Angioplasty
Coronary angioplasty is used to treat coronary atherosclerotic disease in many patients. One problem with coronary angioplasty is the phenomenon of restenosis. Restenosis appears to be a universal response to arterial wall injury. The biological events that underlie restenosis are characterized by: platelet adhesion and aggregation at sites of damaged

Use of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging Angiography to Follow-Up Arterial Remodeling in an Animal Model [PDF]
Appropriately sized arteries in small animals may be possible models for studying the remodeling process as occurs after arterial balloon injury in humans. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is able to noninvasively image tissue in vivo.
