Nuclear and Molecular Imaging Modalities for Predicting Calcific Aortic Valve Disease Progression in Animal Models
… and Objectives Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) is the most common valvular disease, accounting for 50% of all valve disorders and is the third most common cardiovascular disease following coronary disease and hypertension.[1,2] Currently, there is no pharmacological agent capable of …

Role of microRNA 214 in cyclic stretch induced aortic valve pathogenesis
Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) is one of the most prevalent valvular diseases among the elderly population. Unfortunately, there are no therapeutic drugs available to treat this disease. In this regard, mechanosensitive miRNAs have been considered as potential therapeutic candidates for CAVD, …

Molecular imaging of calcification and inflammation in aortic valve disease and atherosclerosis
Introduction. Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) and atherosclerosis are important public health problems. Our ability to allocate patients to treatment strategies optimally and monitor progression is limited. Hybrid positron emission and computed tomography (PET/CT) is able to demonstrate both …

ELUCIDATION OF THE UNIQUE TRANSLATION OF ANGIOGENIC SIGNALING BY AORTIC VALVE CELLS
… progression of calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD). However, the process through which native valve cells, valve endothelial cells (VECs) and valve interstitial cells (VICs), form the neovascularization exhibited during CAVD is unclear due to their atypical translation of several angiogenesis …

Fisiopatología de la estenosis en la válvula aórtica bicúspide: estudio sobre tejido y análisis genético y de biomarcadores en sangre periférica
… poblacional la valvulopatía aórtica calcificada (CAVD) se ha convertido en un problema de salud de primer nivel. La investigación sobre posibles dianas terapéuticas que enlentezcan o detengan la progresiva calcificación tisular es un objetivo esencial para cambiar el paradigma de esta enfermedad. …

Oxidative Modifications of Apolipoprotein(a): Implications for Proinflammatory and Prothrombotic Roles of Lipoprotein(a) in the Vasculature
… risk factor for calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) and coronary heart disease (CHD). Relationships have recently been identified for genetic factors, such as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the LPA gene, specifically r10455872 and rs3798220, that have been correlated with increased …
