An increased level of reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays a major role in endothelial
dysfunction and vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation during in-stent thrombosis …

Aims The rapid endothelialization of bare metal stents (BMS) is counterbalanced by
inflammation-induced neointimal growth. Drug-eluting stents (DES) prevent leukocyte …

Nanotechnology is envisaged to provide a dynamic approach to treat blocking of the
coronary arteries that occurs due to resistance to the normal blood flow to the heart …

Background Flow diverters are used for the treatment of intracranial aneurysms. Surface
modification may decrease the thrombogenicity of flow diverters but the details are unknown …

Treatment of stenosed coronary arteries by balloon angioplasty and stenting results in
arterial injury including severe damage to the endothelium at the site of treatment and …

Local and systemic contamination caused by metal ions leaching from medical device
materials is a significant and continuing health problem. The increasing need for verification …

Precise engineering of surface properties is essential for improving bio/hemocompatibility of
medical implants. In this study, potential of electrospraying (ES) as a coating method to …

Atherosclerosis places a significant burden on humankind; it is the leading cause of mortality
globally, and for those living with atherosclerosis, it can significantly impact quality of life …

In-stent restenosis (ISR) is the leading cause of stent failure and is a direct result of a
dysfunctional vascular endothelium and subsequent overgrowth of vascular smooth muscle …

Excessive migration and proliferation of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) has been observed as
a major factor contributing to the development of in-stent restenosis after coronary stenting …
