Subclinical Carotid Artery Atherosclerosis and Cognitive Function: A Mini-Review

Frontiers in Neurology, 2021
Carotid artery atherosclerosis, the result of a multitude of vascular risk factors, is a promising marker for use in risk stratification. Recent evidence suggests that carotid artery atherosclerosis affects cognitive function and is an independent risk ...

Sealing old plaques, seeding new plaques [PDF]

European Heart Journal - Cardiovascular Imaging, 2012
In stent restenosis (ISR) is a heterogeneous phenomenon. The classical paradigm is neointimal proliferation in response to vessel wall injury often in combination with incomplete stent expansion. Drug-eluting stents (DES) have been designed to reduce or eliminate hyperplasia and in fact dramatically reduced restenosis and target lesion ...

MicroRNAs in the Atherosclerotic Plaque [PDF]

Clinical Chemistry, 2013
BACKGROUND MicroRNAs (miRNA, miR) are noncoding RNAs that regulate gene expression by hindering translation. miRNA expression profiles have been shown to differ in vivo and in vitro in many cellular processes associated with cardiovascular diseases (CVDs).
