The Role of the Autonomic Nervous System in Atherosclerosis - Targeting the Cholinergic Anti-inflammatory Pathway in Humans and Mice
(2017-01-20)
The autonomic nervous system (ANS) has been implicated in numerous atherosclerosis-induced cardiovascular disease, such as myocardial infarction and stroke. Although evidence suggests a relationship between autonomic ...
Proteoglycans, group IIA phospholipase A2, and lipoproteins.Potential involvement in atherogenesis
(2000)
Atherosclerosis is a multifactorial complex disease characterized by a focal accumulation of ApoB-100 containing lipoproteins, extracellular matrix (ECM), and cells in the arterial intima accompanied by an inflammatory ...
Adiponectin, the metabolic syndrome and atherosclerosis. Observation and intervention studies
(2006)
Adiponectin (Adn) has beneficial effects on insulin- and glucose metabolism as well as anti-inflammatory properties. High Adn concentrations are associated with reduced risks for insulin resistance and future diabetes, and ...
Studies on the atherogenicity of apoB-containing lipoproteins in type 2 diabetes
(2009-01-15)
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and the metabolic syndrome (MetS), two conditions that are rapidly increasing in prevalence, as well as the dyslipoproteinemia and subclinical inflammation characteristic for these conditions, are ...
