Composition of atherosclerotic plaques in the coronary arteries in homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia. Am Heart J. 1991;121(Pt 1):210-211.Kragel AH, Roberts WC. Composition of atherosclerotic plaques in the coronary arteries in homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia...
The association of infections such as periodontitis with atherosclerotic diseases is well documented. In spite of the high diversity of the human oral microbiota, and its close contact with the circulatory system, few oral species were detected in atherosclerotic plaques. Thus, we attempted to evaluat...
Morphometric analysis of the composition of atherosclerotic plaques in the four major epicardial coronary arteries in acute myocardial infarction and in su... We studied at necropsy atherosclerotic plaque composition in the four major (right, left main, left anterior descending, and left circumflex) ep...
To understand the relationship between our bacterial microbiome and health, it is essential to define the microbiome in the absence of disease. The digestive tract includes diverse habitats and hosts the human body's greatest bacterial density. We descri
Even with the widespread use of lipid-lowering therapy (LLT)1,2,3,4,5and progress in the study of atherosclerotic mechanisms5,6,7,8,9, cardiovascular events related to atherosclerosis remain the leading cause of mortality and morbidity worldwide10,11. Because atherosclerosis is a multifactorial ...
1 The larger the volume of atherosclerotic plaque, the higher the likelihood of plaque destabilization (rupture or erosion) leading to vascular thrombosis and occlusion of the coronary artery.2 Atherosclerotic features associated with ruptured plaques are large necrotic cores with an inflamed and thin ...
This study demonstrates the complementary value of non-invasive FDG-PET/CT and MR imaging for the evaluation of atherosclerotic plaque composition and activity. Lipid-rich plaques are more inflamed than either calcified or collagen-rich plaques. 展开 ...
The authors have performed immunocytochemical investigations of the distribution of various cell types in human atherosclerotic plaques using monoclonal antibodies specific to smooth muscle cells (CGA7 [Gown et al, J Cell Biol 1985, 100:807-813] and HHF35 [Tsukada et al, Am J Pathol (In press...

Plpp3f/f apoE−/− Alb-Cre+ mice on a Western diet display an enlargement of atherosclerotic plaques driven by an enlarged necrotic core. To investigate the role played by hepatic LPP3 during ath- erosclerosis development, Plpp3f/f apoE−/− Alb-Cre− and Plpp3f/f apoE−/...
