Metal–Organic Frameworks: Unlocking New Frontiers in Cardiovascular Diagnosis and Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), are composed of metal ions and bridging organic ligands, are recognized as an excellent platform for host‐gust chemistry. Its rich structural composition, modifiable sites, and multilevel pore distribution can provide delivery and release of signaling molecules, probes, and therapeutic drugs, which exhibit great medical

Serum carotenoids reduce progression of early atherosclerosis in the carotid artery wall among Eastern Finnish men.

PLoS ONE, 2013
BackgroundSeveral previous epidemiologic studies have shown that high blood levels of carotenoids may be protective against early atherosclerosis, but results have been inconsistent.

CCDC80 Protects against Aortic Dissection and Rupture by Maintaining the Contractile Smooth Muscle Cell Phenotype

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Aortic dissection (AD) is accompanied by a decrease in CCDC80 in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). CCDC80 can interact with JAK2, and VSMC‐specific CCDC80 deficiency accelerates the progression of AD by activating the JAK2/STAT3 pathway involved in regulating the phenotype switching and function of VSMCs.

Relationship between Dietary Intake and Body Composition with Carotid Intima-Media Thickness in Patients with Transient Ischemic Attack

مجله دانشکده پزشکی اصفهان, 2017
Background: Population-based studies in many countries have shown that carotid intima-media thickness (IMT) has a positive relationship with stroke. Some studies have suggested that many of the foods or body composition have effect on the risk of stroke.

Heritability of carotid intima-media thickness: A twin study [PDF]

Atherosclerosis, 2008
To estimate the heritability of carotid intima-media thickness (IMT), a surrogate marker for atherosclerosis, independent of traditional coronary risk factors.We performed a classical twin study of carotid IMT using 98 middle-aged male twin pairs, 58 monozygotic (MZ) and 40 dizygotic (DZ) pairs, from the Vietnam Era Twin Registry.
