Circumflex Coronary Artery Occlusions
We compared myocardial infarct size produced by permanent occlusion of the middle left anterior descending (LAD) or circumflex (LCx) coronary artery in the anesthetized dog. The dogs were killed 3-10 days later, and the occluded coronary bed was visualized by postmortem arteriography. The outlines of the infarct and occluded bed were marked on tracings of weighed left ventricular (LV) rings and...
متن کاملTherapeutic Angiogenesis for the Treatment of Coronary Artery Disease: Can We Improve the Results?
Cardiovascular disease is a major cause of morbidity and death, not only in the Western world, but also in Asia and in other areas previously spared from severe atherosclerotic vascular disease, since poor dietary habits and other life style changes predisposing to atherosclerosis are becoming standard in these regions. Despite better management of cardiovascular risk factors, and improved non-...
متن کاملCoronary artery occlusions diagnosed by transthoracic Doppler
BACKGROUND Our aim was to assess whether anterograde flow velocities in septal perforating branches could identify an occluded contralateral coronary artery, and to assess the feasibility and accuracy of diagnosing occlusions in the three main coronary arteries by the combined use of several noninvasive parameters indicating collateral flow. METHODS A total of 108 patients scheduled for coron...
متن کاملTherapeutic Angiogenesis for Peripheral Artery Disease
Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a major health care problem. There have been limited advances in medical therapies, and a huge burden of symptomatic patients with intermittent claudication and critical limb ischemia who have limited treatment options. Angiogenesis is the growth and proliferation of blood vessels from existing vasculature. For approximately 2 decades, “therapeutic angiogene...
متن کاملLncRNA as a Therapeutic Target for Angiogenesis
BACKGROUND Out of 3 billion base pairs in human genome only ~2% code for proteins; and out of 180,000 transcripts in human cells, about 20,000 code for protein, remaining 160,000 are non-coding transcripts. Most of these transcripts are more than 200 base pairs and constitute a group of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA). Many of the lncRNA have its own promoter, and are well conserved in mammals. Ac...
