Development of vascular smooth muscle cell models for investigating the role of CMKLR1/chemerin signalling in atherosclerosis
(2015)Chemerin is a fat tissue-secreted protein that activates cellular processes though chemokine-like receptor 1 (CMKLR1) signalling. Serum chemerin is positively correlated to atherosclerosis severity, however the functional ... -
Pattern Formation in Atherosclerotic Plaques
(2019-08-14)Atherosclerosis is a disease of the cardiovascular system of humans that can lead to myocardial infarction and stroke. It begins in the arterial walls (intima) as an inflammatory response to dysfunction of the endothelium ... -
Use of nanoparticles (HPPS) to carry Curcumin to induce Heme Oxygenase-1 (HO-1) as a cytoprotective agent in human endothelial cells
(2019-01-07)High-density lipoproteins (HDL) are endogenous nanoparticles that maintain physiological levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) via reverse cholesterol transport (RCT). HDL is known to reduce atherosclerotic lesions, ...
