In order to detect a vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque that is more likely to cause cardiovascular events, one should focus on studying biomarkers more associated with destabilization rather than ...

HIF-1α exerts both detrimental and beneficial actions in atherosclerosis. While there is evidence that HIF-1α could be pro-atherogenic within the atheromatous plaque, experimental models of ...

IL-6 secreted by ECs, monocytes, T cells, neutrophils and VSMCs promotes adhesion molecule expression by ECs as well as transmigration of circulating immune cells into the atherosclerotic plaque (this ...

Coronary artery calcification has been shown to be a surrogate marker for atherosclerosis, with the calcium score ‘Agatston score’, being proportional to atherosclerosis plaque burden and ...

Amgen’s next-generation cholesterol drug has shown it can reverse the build up of plaque build-up in coronary ... significant regression of atherosclerosis in patients with coronary artery ...

“While systemic inflammation was expected to influence atherosclerosis, the magnitude of plaque progression underscores the profound impact of COVID-19,” says Ge. “The study shows that even ...

Another common condition called atherosclerosis can also cause brain aneurysms. In atherosclerosis, plaques made mostly of fat build up in arteries and stick to the artery walls. This directly ...
