Background: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) play an important role in the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis. Reportedly, statins can decrease MMP activity in patients with atherosclerotic cardiovasc
To explore circRNAs expression profiles of mouse atherosclerotic model, we performed RNA-seq to detect circRNAs with potential functional role in atherosclerosis (AS). Overall design: CircRNA sequenci
Objective: To examine the effects of the phytoestrogen metabolite, equol, on gene expression in the monkey iliac artery. Design: Eight ovariectomized cynomolgus monkeys were on a high fat diet for 6.5
Various angiogenic factors have been shown to play important roles in intraplaque angiogenesis, while little is known about the dynamic expression change and interplay between various angiogenic facto
