Artery-related differences in atherosclerosis expression: implications for atherogenesis and dynamics in intima-media thickness.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Information about the expression of atherosclerosis in different arteries is important. The impact of cardiovascular risk factors is artery-related, and the assessment of arterial structure and function in peripheral arteries are increasingly used as surrogate markers for coronary atherosclerosis and the risk of developing heart attack. METHODS In an autopsy study, we a...
متن کاملAngiotensin-converting enzyme expression in human carotid artery atherosclerosis.
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors reduce the progression of atherosclerosis in animal models and reinfarction rates after myocardial infarction in humans. Although expression of components of the renin-angiotensin system has been reported in human coronary arteries, no data regarding their presence in carotid arteries, a frequent site for the occurrence of atherosclerosis plaques, ...
متن کاملCucumber Response to Sphaerotheca fuliginea: Differences in Antioxidant Enzymes Activity and Pathogenesis-Related Gene Expression in Susceptible and Resistant Genotypes
Cucurbits powdery mildew is one of the most detrimental diseases of cucumber plants worldwide. A detailed insight into the biological processes leading to resistance or susceptibility to the pathogen would pave the road for an efficient disease-resistance breeding program. In the present study, the molecular and biochemical responses of a resistant vs. a susceptible cucumber cultivar infected w...
متن کاملRace-gender differences in the association of trait anger with subclinical carotid artery atherosclerosis: the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study.
This paper examines the association between trait anger and subclinical carotid artery atherosclerosis among 14,098 Black or White men and women, aged 48-67 years, in the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities Study cohort, 1990-1992. Trait anger was assessed using the 10-item Spielberger Trait Anger Scale. Carotid atherosclerosis was determined by an averaged measure of the wall intimal-medial th...
متن کاملCerebral Artery Atherosclerosis
Methods Pre-operative magnetic resonance angiography was performed on 1,367 consecutive CABG patients to assess Intracranial and extracranlal cerebral atherosclerosis. Disease severity was evaluated by atherosclerosis score, as determined by the number of steno-occluslons of cerebral arteries and the degree thereof. Post-CABG strokes (within 14 days) were classified as atherosclerotic (strokes ...
