    Overexpression of SERCA2 ATPaase in vascular smooth muscle cells treated with oxidized low density lipoprotein

    Oxidized low density lipoprotein (oxLDL) has been identified as a potentially important atherogenic factor. Atherosclerosis is characterized by the accumulation of lipid and calcium in the vascular wall. OxLDL...

    Native and minimally oxidized low density lipoprotein depress smooth muscle matrix metalloproteinase levels

    Vascular lesion development is associated with an accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins within the vessel wall. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) degrade these proteins. Conversely, oxidized low density...

    Low matrix metalloproteinase levels precede vascular lesion formation in the JCR:LA-cp rat

    Clinically significant occlusive vascular lesions contain more extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins and lipid deposition than healthy vascular tissue. The events leading to this condition remain unresolved. One...

    Gene Transfer of Prostaglandin Synthase Maintains Patency of the Newborn Lamb Arterial Duct

    In congenital heart disease with left- or right-sided obstruction, prostaglandin E (PGE)1 or PGE2 is infused to maintain ductus arteriosus (DA) patency. We hypothesized that transfection of the DA with PGE syntha...

    Oxidation of Selected Lipids in Low Density Lipoprotein: Effects on Calcium Transients in Isolated Rabbit Cardiomyocytes

    When LDL is oxidized by a free radical generating system, both cholesterol and fatty acyl moieties within the LDL are modified. Oxidized low density lipoprotein (oxLDL) can induce alterations in the Ca2+ transien...
