Low‐Intensity Focused Ultrasound‐Responsive Ferrite‐Encapsulated Nanoparticles for Atherosclerotic Plaque Neovascularization Theranostics

Advanced Science, 2021
Pathological angiogenesis is a crucial factor that causes atherosclerotic plaque rupture. Sinoporphyrin sodium‐mediated sonodynamic therapy (DVDMS‐SDT) induces regression of plaque neovascularization in humans without causing obvious side effects ...

Phenotypic Shifts in Macrophages Within Advanced Atherosclerotic Plaques in Humans

FASEB BioAdvances, Volume 7, Issue 6, June 2025.
The transition from a non‐atherosclerotic to an atherosclerotic artery is associated with a shift in macrophage phenotypes. In the homeostatic environment of a non‐atherosclerotic artery, macrophages are predominantly anti‐inflammatory, anti‐atherogenic.

High levels of hemoglobin promote carotid adventitial vasa vasorum neoangiogenesis in chronic kidney disease [PDF]

, 2017
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients, characterized by traditional and nontraditional risk factors, are prone to develop atheromatosis and thus cardiovascular events and mortality.

Diagnostics Accuracy of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in Detection of Atherosclerotic Plaque Characteristics in Carotid Arteries Compared to Histology: A Systematic Review

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 1067-1093, March 2025.
Carotid plaque composition represents one of the main risk factors of future ischemic stroke. MRI provides excellent soft tissue contrast that can distinguish plaque characteristics. Our objective was to analyze the diagnostic accuracy of MRI imaging in the detection of carotid plaque characteristics compared to histology in patients with symptomatic ...

Carotid intraplaque neovascularization increases the risk of white matter hyperintensity progression: a prospective cohort study

Frontiers in Neuroscience
Background and purposeWhite matter hyperintensities (WMH) are a common imaging manifestation of cerebral small vessel disease (CSVD). While carotid intraplaque neovascularization (IPN) has been implicated in WMH burden, its longitudinal impact on WMH ...

Angiogenesis within atherosclerotic plaques: Mechanical regulation, molecular mechanism and clinical diagnosis

Mechanobiology in Medicine
Atherosclerosis (AS) is a disease characterized by focal cholesterol accumulation and insoluble inflammation in arterial intima, leading to the formation of an atherosclerotic plaque consisting of lipids, cells, and fibrous matrix. The presence of plaque
