Experimental models of coronary artery restenosis
The study of potentially effective drug therapies and mechanical devices for the prevention of restenosis after percutaneous coronary revascularization has relied heavily on the use of experimental animal models. To date, greater than 50 experimental studies have been reported and have suggested that at least nine different classes of pharmacologic ...

Coronary restenosis remains the main problem for effectiveness of percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty (PCA) and coronary stenting (CS). The aim of this review is to analyze pathogenetic mechanisms of coronary restenosis after PCA and CS, as ...

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.

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 ...

Role of noncoding RNA in vascular remodelling [PDF]
Purpose of review: Noncoding RNAs (ncRNAs), such as microRNAs (miRNAs) and long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are becoming fundamentally important in the pathophysiology relating to injury-induced vascular remodelling.

Restenosis after coronary angioplasty: An overview
Despite substantial basic and clinical efforts to address the problem of restenosis after percutaneous coronary intervention, effective preventive therapies have not yet been developed. Nevertheless, the accumulated information has provided much insight into the process of restenosis in addition to allowing standards to be developed for adequate ...

ABSTRACT Background Intravascular ultrasound (IVUS)‐guided optimization of suboptimal fractional flow reserve (FFR) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) results in a significant increase in both post‐PCI FFR and minimal lumen and stent areas (MLA and MSA, respectively).

Does lipoprotein (a) level have a predictive value in restenosis after coronary stenting?
Objectives: Lipid disorders, lipoproteins, diabetes mellitus, and hypertension are the known risk factors for coronary artery diseases; however, their role is unknown in restenosis after coronary stenting.
