Characterization of the Mechanism of PPARγ-Mediated Neointima Formation in Rodents
… the LPA receptor subtypes necessary for the neointimal response in a non-injury model of carotid remodeling and also compared the effects of AGP and the PPARγ agonist rosiglitazone (ROSI) on balloon injury-elicited neointima development. In the balloon injury model AGP significantly increased …

Vergleichende Untersuchung der Wirkung verschiedener HMG-CoA Reduktase Inhibitoren auf die Apoptose normaler und neointimaler Gefäßmuskelzellen
… selektive Induktion von Apoptose in Zellen der Neointima zur Restenose-prävention ist ein besseres Verständnis der Apoptoseregulation in glatten Gefäßmuskelzellen erforderlich. In dieser Arbeit wurden glatte Gefäßmuskelzellen aus Media und Neointima der Ratte im Hinblick auf ihre Empfindlichkeit …

Untersuchungen zur Beteiligung von p38 MAPK beim Remodelingprozeß nach Myokardinfarkt in vivo und bei der Fibronektinexpression in Rahmen der Neointima - Entstehung nach Angioplastie in vitro
… und bei der Fibronektin-Expression in Rahmen der Neointima- Entstehung nach Angioplastie in vitro durchgeführt. Im Bereich der kardiovaskulären Forschung hat die Familie der Mitogen Aktivierten Protein Kinasen besonderes Interesse gewonnen. Sie besteht aus drei Subgruppen - JNK, ERK und p38 MAPK. …

A translational approach to understanding cellular responses to vascular injury
… drove excessive proliferation leading to neointima formation and vascular blockage. A Johnstone lab developed peptide that targets this phosphorylation state prevents neointima formation in mouse and human tissues. These findings highlight a role for Cx43 phosphorylation by MAPK in …

Vascular smooth muscle cell heterogeneity and plasticity in models of cardiovascular disease
… used to demonstrate that VSMCs in injury-induced neointimal lesions and in atherosclerotic plaques are oligo-clonal, derived from few expanding cells, within mice. Lineage tracing also revealed that the progeny of individual VSMCs contribute to both alpha Smooth muscle actin (aSma)-positive …

Polo-Like Kinase 1 and Smooth Muscle Cells in Coronary Artery Bypass Conduits and Coronary Arteries Following Angioplasty
… (SV) graft is prone to undergo restenosis due to neointima formation. However, the underlying mechanism in vein-graft that makes it prone to stenosis and closure is unknown. In this study, we examined the role of polo-like kinase (PLK)-1 in the PLK1/pPLK1-pCDK1-p-Histone H3 pathway in mediating …

In Vitro and In Silico Study of Deposition on Textured Biomaterials: Towards Biofunctionalization of Ventricular Cannula
… decades have been highly variable, ranging from neointima to thrombus. Chapter 2 addresses this ambiguity by introducing a unified taxonomy for biological response to sintered titanium in LVADs, distinguishing neointima---with anti-thrombogenic endothelium--- from pannus, pseudoneointima, and …

Einfluß der Atherosklerose auf den NO:cGMP Signalweg am Modell des cholesteringefütterten Kaninchen
… ist vor allem in der neugebildeten Neointima reduziert. P-VASP, ein Indikator der Aktivität des gesamten NO:cGMP-Signalwegs, ist in eindrucksvoller Weise reduziert. Die Enzyme des NO-unabhängigen Teils des NO:cGMP-Signalwegs werden in zunehmenden Maße pharmakologisch beeinflußbar. …

Die Bedeutung von Entzündung und reaktiven Sauerstoffspezies in der Intimahyperplasie
… des Gefäßes ist die Bildung einer Neointima durch die Proliferation transdifferenzierter vaskulärer glatter Muskelzellen und die Sekretion extrazellulärer Matrix. Die Entstehung reaktiver Sauerstoffspezies (ROS) und die Entzündungsreaktion nach der Gefäßverletzung werden als frühe, …

Protective Immunity in Atherosclerosis
… reduced atherosclerosis development, whereas, neointima formation in response to vascular injury was accelerated by CD1d lipid antigen presentation. NKT cells and CD1d could therefore be an additional potential target in immune modulating therapies. Except for novel therapies, new biomarkers to …

Novel strategies for optimising drug release from medicinal implants
… and migration, resulting in the development of a neointima, which renarrows the artery lumen. Drug-eluting stents (DES) release drugs to inhibit SMC proliferation and have been very successful in reducing ISR rates. However, they are not suitable for every patient group and lesion type, and may …

Studies on the role of the endocannabinoid anandamide, as a possible modulator of events during neointimal formation.
Neointimal formation is a complex process that occurs due to the over compensatory healing response produced by the vessel following injury. Three key events, SMC proliferation, SMC migration and the inflammatory response, occur in unison to drive the formation of a neointima. …

Vascular Endothelin and Angiotensin Receptors Regulation in Inflammatory Arterial Disorders
… in the VSMC in the medial layer as well in the neointima in affected arteries. 6. ETB receptors mediate contraction of subcutaneous resistance arteries in ischemic heart disease. The present thesis demonstrated that there is increased ETB and AT1 receptor expression in VSMC in ischemic heart …

Einfluß der Photodynamischen Therapie auf die Neointimabildung vor und nach Stentimplantation in die Arteria femoralis des Hausschweines
… um einen möglichst günstigen Effekt auf die Neointimafläche zu erzielen. Material und Methode: Es wurden drei Gruppen untersucht. Die Kontrollgruppe (Gruppe K), bei der jeweils ein Stent in die Arteria femoralis implantiert wurde, eine „1.Stent+2.PDT“-Gruppe (Gruppe A), die zuerst einer …

Development of bioabsorbable braided vascular scaffolds for the intracranial circulation
… aneurysms is only temporary, due to progressive neointima formation over the stent structure, they cannot be removed. This requires patients to remain on lifelong anti-platelet medications, which can cause other health problems. Bioabsorbable stents have been postulated as a way to overcome the …

Impact of Percutaneous Transluminal Intervention on Vascular Hypoxia and the Role of Micro-calcifications on Atherosclerotic Plaque Rupture
… 10% of PTI procedures are followed by severe Neointima Hyperplasia (NH), which causes a new occlusion and failure of the implant. A significant precursor of NH appears to be PTI-induced vascular hypoxia, but the reason for this drop in oxygen tension remains unclear. On the other hand, …
