Arginase Promotes Neointima Formation in Rat Injured Carotid Arteries
(East Carolina University, 2009-04)
Objective—Arginase stimulates the proliferation of cultured vascular smooth muscle cells
(VSMCs); however, the influence of arginase on VSMC growth in vivo is not known. This study
investigated the impact of arginase on ...
LOCAL ADMINISTRATION OF CARBON MONOXIDE INHIBITS NEOINTIMA FORMATION IN BALLOON INJURED RAT CAROTID ARTERIES
(2005)
Recent studies indicate that systemic induction of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), which oxidatively degrades heme into iron, biliverdin, and carbon monoxide (CO), or adenoviral-mediated gene transfer of HO-1 inhibits neointima ...
