Small poly-L-lysines improve cationic lipid-mediated gene transfer in vascular cells in vitro and in vivo [PDF]
The potential of two small poly-L-lysines ( sPLLs), low molecular weight sPLL ( LMW-L) containing 7 - 30 lysine residues and L18 with 18 lysine repeats, to enhance the efficiency of liposome-mediated gene transfer ( GT) with cationic lipid DOCSPER {[}1,3-

Vascular calcification (VC) is a major cause of cardiovascular mortality in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). Current studies suggest that VC of CKD is not simply an ectopic deposition of calcium phosphate crystals in vascular wall.

Background: Studies in humans as well as in animal models suggest that interleukin-18 (IL-18) plays a crucial role in vascular pathologies. IL-18 is a strong predictor of cardiovascular death in angina and is involved in atherotic plaque destabilization.

Vascular smooth muscle cell phenotypic switching in atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis (AS) is a complex pathology process involving intricate interactions among various cells and biological processes. Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are the predominant cell type in normal arteries, and under atherosclerotic stimuli ...

The vascular renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system
PhDThe renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) is one of the major regulators of blood pressure. The actions and generation of RAAS components at the tissue level are less well appreciated.
