Advances of nanoparticle-mediated diagnostic and theranostic strategies for atherosclerosis

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
Atherosclerotic plaque remains the primary cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Accurate assessment of the degree of atherosclerotic plaque is critical for predicting the risk of atherosclerotic plaque and monitoring the results after intervention.

The Applications of Single-Cell RNA Sequencing in Atherosclerotic Disease

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Atherosclerosis still is the primary cause of death worldwide. Our characterization of the atherosclerotic lesion is mainly rooted in definitions based on pathological descriptions.

The Effect of PCSK9 Inhibition on the Stabilization of Atherosclerotic Plaque Determined by Biochemical and Diagnostic Imaging Methods

Molecules, 2023
Atherosclerosis is a multifactorial, progressive, chronic inflammatory disease. Ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging are the most accurate predictors of atherosclerotic plaque instability (MRI).

Potential circulating biomarkers of atherosclerotic plaque vulnerability in patients in the early recovery period of atherothrombotic stroke [PDF]

The Ukrainian Biochemical Journal, 2023
Despite the informative value of ultrasound examination of atherosclerotic vascular lesions, predicting­ the plaque vulnerabili­ty remains difficult. Circulating blood biomarkers could provide additional criteria that would allow better determination of ...

Plasma Testosterone Levels and Atherosclerotic Plaque Gene Expression in Men With Advanced Atherosclerosis

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Aims: Low plasma testosterone levels have been shown to predict worse outcome in men with severe atherosclerotic disease. We hypothesized that a low plasma testosterone level affects disease risk through changes in gene expression in atherosclerotic ...

Macrophage death in atherosclerosis: potential role in calcification

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
Cell death is an important aspect of atherosclerotic plaque development. Insufficient efferocytosis of death cells by phagocytic macrophages leads to the buildup of a necrotic core that impacts stability of the plaque.

Ginsenoside Rb1 Enhances Plaque Stability and Inhibits Adventitial Vasa Vasorum via the Modulation of miR-33 and PEDF

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Background: Atherosclerosis is closely associated with proliferation of the adventitial vasa vasorum, leading to the atherosclerotic plaque progression and vulnerability.

Effects of norepinephrine on plaque hypoxia in atherosclerotic rabbits

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
BackgroundHypoxia plays a vital role throughout the whole process of atherosclerotic vulnerable plaque formation, which may be induced by a reduced oxygen supply.
