Thermal preconditioning before rat arterial balloon injury: limitation of injury and sustained reduction of intimal thickening.
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are a family of highly conserved proteins, essential to cell survival, that are induced during times of physiological stress. These proteins, when induced, can provide tolerance to subsequent injury. Several studies have documented that HSPs play an important role in the response of vascular cells to injury or stress. Whether the vasculature itself can be effectively ...
متن کاملEffect of Thermal Preconditioning Before Excimer Laser Photoablation
The purposes of this study were to assess the expression patterns of heat shock proteins (Hsps), after eyeball heating or cooling, and to elucidate their relationships with corneal wound healing and intraocular complications after excimer laser treatment. Experimental mice were grouped into three according to local pretreatment type: heating, cooling, and control groups. The preconditioning was...
متن کاملSodium Ferulate Inhibits Neointimal Hyperplasia in Rat Balloon Injury Model
BACKGROUND/AIM Neointimal formation after vessel injury is a complex process involving multiple cellular and molecular processes. Inhibition of intimal hyperplasia plays an important role in preventing proliferative vascular diseases, such as restenosis. In this study, we intended to identify whether sodium ferulate could inhibit neointimal formation and further explore potential mechanisms inv...
متن کاملOxidized LDL receptor LOX-1 is involved in neointimal hyperplasia after balloon arterial injury in a rat model.
OBJECTIVE LOX-1 is a multi-ligand receptor originally identified as the endothelial oxidized LDL receptor. LOX-1 expression is also induced in smooth muscle cells in response to proinflammatory and oxidative stimuli. Here, we report on the role of LOX-1 in intimal hyperplasia, in which proinflammatory and oxidative stimuli are increased. METHODS AND RESULTS Left common carotid artery of rat w...
متن کاملIntravascular ultrasound cross-sectional arterial imaging before and after balloon angioplasty in vitro.
A prototype ultrasound imaging catheter was evaluated in vitro using 17 human atherosclerotic artery segments before and after balloon dilatation angioplasty. The catheter was 1.2 mm in diameter and incorporated a single 20-MHz ultrasound transducer to obtain cross-sectional images of the arterial lumen. In 15 of the 17 (88%) arteries, high quality images were obtained, which demonstrated clear...
