Is there life after plaque rupture?

open access: yes, 2007
Little is known of the relationship between plaque rupture and adaptive geometric remodelling, especially in the context of unstable atherosclerosis. We have assessed remodelling in the proximal brachiocephalic arteries of fat-fed apoE (apolipoprotein E)-

Imaging Atherosclerosis and Risk of Plaque Rupture [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Atherosclerosis Reports, 2013
Atherosclerosis imaging strategies can delineate characteristics of plaques at risk of rupture and thrombosis. Structural plaque imaging identifies high-risk plaque features, including lipid pools, thin fibrous caps, and intraplaque hemorrhage. New molecular imaging techniques complement structural imaging approaches by illuminating important features ...

How critical is fibrous cap thickness to carotid plaque stability? A flow-plaque interaction model

open access: yes, 2006
Background and Purpose \ud \ud Acute cerebral ischemic events are associated with rupture of vulnerable carotid atheroma and subsequent thrombosis. Factors such as luminal stenosis and fibrous cap thickness have been thought to be important risk factors ...

Plaque rupture in coronary atherosclerosis is associated with increased plaque structural stress

open access: yes, 2017
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to identify the determinants of plaque structural stress (PSS) and the relationship between PSS and plaques with rupture.

Carotid plaque stress analysis by fluid structure interaction based on in-vivo MRI: Implications to plaque vulnerability assessment

open access: yes, 2010
This thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University, 2010.Stroke is one of the leading causes of death in the world, resulting mostly from the sudden rupture of atherosclerotic plaques.

The Use of Biomarkers for the Early Detection of Vulnerable Atherosclerotic Plaques and Vulnerable Patients. A Review

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Emergencies, 2016
Acute coronary syndromes represent the most severe consequences of atherosclerosis, most often triggered by the rupture of a coronary plaque, which, for various reasons, has become unstable.

The Ongoing Quest to Predict Plaque Rupture

open access: yesJACC: Cardiovascular Imaging, 2017
Many plant ion channels have been identified, but little is known about how these transporters are regulated. We have investigated the regulation of a slow vacuolar (SV) ion channel in the tonoplast of barley aleurone storage protein vacuoles (SPV) using the patch-clamp technique.

CD40 ligand inhibits endothelial cell migration by increasing production of endothelial reactive oxygen species

open access: yes, 2002
Background— The CD40/CD40 ligand system is involved in atherogenesis. Activated T lymphocytes and platelets, which express high amounts of CD40 ligand (CD40L) on their surface, contribute significantly to plaque instability with ensuing thrombus ...
