New data suggest Twist1-driven atherosclerotic plaques may enhance stability rather than rupture risk. Learn how this ...

A recent review identifies interleukin-36 (IL-36) as a transformative driver of vascular inflammation, revealing that serum ...

The progression of atherosclerosis, at a cellular level, is reminiscent of the processes involved in tumor growth, new research confirms. Importantly, the idea itself is not new—but until now, the ...

Research scientists at Aarhus University and Aarhus University Hospital have investigated the mechanisms by which hypertension leads to arterial damage and atherosclerosis. The results may facilitate ...

Coating nanoparticles derived from a ginger-family plant in stem cell membranes enables targeted atherosclerosis treatment.

A new study has found that moderate increases in blood pressure and cholesterol have a greater impact on arterial plaque, or atherosclerosis, progression in 40-year-olds than in people over 48. The ...

In atherosclerosis, the vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) contributes to vessel wall inflammation and lipoprotein retention, as well as to the formation of the fibrous cap that provides stability to ...
