Impaired endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS)/nitric oxide (NO) pathway induces atherogenesis. The present study examined whether icariin improves the eNOS/NO pathway to prohibit the atherogenesis of apolipoprotein E-null (ApoE) mice. In vitro, p...
. Subclinical atherosclerosis and long-term glycemic variability have been reported to predict incident chronic kidney disease (CKD) in the general population. However, these associations have not been investigated in patients with type 2 diabetes wi...
BACKGROUND: Cross-sectional studies have found an association between deficiencies in serum vitamin D, as measured by 25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D), and an atherogenic lipid profile. These studies have focused on a limited panel of lipid values inclu...
PET imaging has become a valuable tool for assessing atherosclerosis by targeting key processes such as inflammation and microcalcification. Among available tracers, 18F-sodium fluoride has demonstrated superior performance compared to 18F-fluorodeox...
Atherosclerosis (AS) is a complex cardiovascular disease associated with mitochondrial dysfunction (MD), which contributes to plaque formation and instability. This study explores the relationship and shared risk factors between the pathogenesis of A...
