eNOS Gene Transfer Inhibits Smooth Muscle Cell Migration and MMP-2 and MMP-9 ActivityArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology - Tập 19 Số 12 - Trang 2871-2877 - 1999
Milind V. Gurjar, Ram V. Sharma, Ramesh C. Bhalla
Abstract
—Vascular smooth muscle cell (SMC) migration is a critical step in the development of neointima after angioplasty. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) degrade the basement membrane and the extracellular matrix, facilitating SMC migration. Transfer of the endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) gene to the injury site inhibits neoin...... hiện toàn bộ
Dkk1 and Msx2–Wnt7b Signaling Reciprocally Regulate the Endothelial–Mesenchymal Transition in Aortic Endothelial CellsArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology - Tập 33 Số 7 - Trang 1679-1689 - 2013
Su‐Li Cheng, Jian-Su Shao, Abraham Behrmann, Karen Krchma, Dwight A. Towler
Objective—
Endothelial cells (ECs) can undergo an endothelial–mesenchymal transition with tissue fibrosis. Wnt- and Msx2-regulated signals participate in arteriosclerotic fibrosis and calcification. We studied the impact of Wnt7, Msx2, and Dkk1, a Wnt7 antagonist, on endothelial–mesenchymal transition in primary aortic ECs.... hiện toàn bộ

Fenofibrate Effect on Triglyceride and Postprandial Response of Apolipoprotein A5 VariantsArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology - Tập 27 Số 6 - Trang 1417-1425 - 2007
Chao‐Qiang Lai, Donna K. Arnett, Dolores Corella, Robert J. Straka, Michael Y. Tsai, James M. Peacock, Xian Adiconis, Laurence D. Parnell, James E. Hixson, Michael A. Province, José M. Ordovás
Objective—
Apolipoprotein A5 (
APOA5
) is a key determinant of plasma triglyceride (TG) concentrations. Genetic variation at the
APOA5
locus could be responsible for some of the observed ...... hiện toàn bộ
Analysis of Apolipoprotein A5, C3, and Plasma Triglyceride Concentrations in Genetically Engineered MiceArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology - Tập 24 Số 7 - Trang 1297-1302 - 2004
Nadine Baroukh, Eric Baugé, Jennifer A. Akiyama, Jessie Chang, Veena Afzal, Jean‐Charles Fruchart, Edward M. Rubin, Jamila Fruchart‐Najib, L Pennacchio
Objective—Both the apolipoprotein A5 and C3 genes have repeatedly been shown to play an important role in determining plasma triglyceride concentrations in humans and mice. In mice, transgenic and knockout experiments indicate that plasma triglyceride levels are strongly altered by changes in the expression of either of these 2 genes. In hu...... hiện toàn bộ
Deficiency of Glutathione Peroxidase-1 Accelerates the Progression of Atherosclerosis in Apolipoprotein E-Deficient MiceArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology - Tập 27 Số 4 - Trang 850-857 - 2007

Background—
We have recently demonstrated that activity of red blood cell glutathione peroxidase-1 is inversely associated with the risk of cardiovascular events in patients with coronary artery disease. The present study analyzed the effect of glutathione peroxidase-1 deficiency on ather...... hiện toàn bộ
Mutations in Promoter Region of Thrombomodulin and Venous Thromboembolic DiseaseArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology - Tập 19 Số 4 - Trang 1098-1104 - 1999

Abstract
—The present study was designed to analyze the thrombomodulin proximal promoter region spanning nucleotides −293 to −12 to search for polymorphisms that could modify thrombomodulin gene expression in patients with venous thromboembolic disease. The study population comprised 205 patients and 394 healthy subjects of similar age an...... hiện toàn bộ
Importance of a Novel Oxidative Mechanism for Elimination of Intracellular Cholesterol in HumansArteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology - Tập 16 Số 2 - Trang 208-212 - 1996

Abstract
We have recently demonstrated that cultured human alveolar macrophages efficiently convert cholesterol into excretable 27-oxygenated products. We show here that increasing the intracellular concentration of cholesterol by a factor of 10 leads to about a twofold increase in the excretion of 27-oxygenated products from cultured mac...... hiện toàn bộ
