Genetic background selectively influences innominate artery atherosclerosis: immune system deficiency as a probe.
OBJECTIVE We sought to examine whether there is a site-specific effect on atherosclerosis of the absence of mature T and B cells caused by a recombination activating-gene deficiency in LDL receptor-deficient mice and whether this effect is influence by the extent of backcrossing to C57BL/6 mice. METHODS AND RESULTS Male mice were fed atherogenic diets for 3 months. In strain 1 mice, in which ...
متن کاملInnominate artery angioplasty.
Several recent reports [1-7] have discussed the potential use of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) for treatment of stenotic lesions of the brachiocephalic vessels. We report a case of successful angioplasty in a patient with innominate artery stenosis associated with reversal of blood flow in the right vertebral artery (right subclavian steal). The risk of cerebral embolization was r...
متن کاملGenetic background influences fluoride's effects on osteoclastogenesis.
Excessive fluoride (F) can lead to abnormal bone biology. Numerous studies have focused on the anabolic action of F yet little is known regarding any action on osteoclastogenesis. Little is known regarding the influence of an individual's genetic background on the responses of bone cells to F. Four-week old C57BL/6J (B6) and C3H/HeJ (C3H) female mice were treated with NaF in the drinking water ...
متن کاملA case with tracheo-innominate artery fistula. Successful management of endovascular embolization of innominate artery.
Tracheo-innominate artery fistula (TIF) is known as a fatal complication after tracheostomy. We report a 9-year-old girl with early hypoxic encephalopathy who had a tracheo-innominate artery fistula with exsanguinating hemorrhage from her tracheostoma 10 months after tracheostomy. After temporary control of bleeding, embolization of the innominate artery was performed. The patient has remained ...
متن کاملA case of tracheo‐innominate artery fistula successfully treated with endovascular stent of the innominate artery
Tracheo-innominate artery fistula (TIF) is a rare but life-threatening complication of tracheostomy. We describe a 44-year-old man who was admitted for a pressure ulcer infection with a third tracheostomy in place. He showed massive hemoptysis from the TIF, followed by cardiopulmonary arrest. The cuff of the tube was hyperinflated; however, even a slight movement of the tube resulted in recurre...
