Journal ArticleDOI
Mitochondria and cardiovascular diseases-from pathophysiology to treatment.
Gerasimos Siasos,Vasiliki Tsigkou,Marinos Kosmopoulos,Dimosthenis G Theodosiadis,Spyridon Simantiris,Nikoletta Maria Tagkou,Athina Tsimpiktsioglou,Panagiota K. Stampouloglou,Evangelos Oikonomou,Konstantinos Mourouzis,Anastasios Philippou,Manolis Vavuranakis,Christodoulos Stefanadis,Dimitris Tousoulis,Athanasios G. Papavassiliou +14 more
TL;DR: The aim of future research is to design molecules which selectively target mitochondrial dysfunction and restore the capacity of cellular anti-oxidant enzymes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased local temperature in human coronary atherosclerotic plaques: an independent predictor of clinical outcome in patients undergoing a percutaneous coronary intervention
Christodoulos Stefanadis,Konstantinos Toutouzas,Eleftherios Tsiamis,Costas Stratos,Manolis Vavuranakis,Ioannis Kallikazaros,D B Panagiotakos,Pavlos Toutouzas +7 more
TL;DR: Increased local temperature in atherosclerotic plaques is a strong predictor of an unfavorable clinical outcome in patients with coronary artery disease undergoing percutaneous interventions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Vasa vasorum imaging: A new window to the clinical detection of vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques
Stephane Carlier,Ioannis A. Kakadiaris,Nabil Dib,Manolis Vavuranakis,Sean M. O'Malley,Khawar Gul,Craig J. Hartley,Ralph W. Metcalfe,Roxana Mehran,Christodoulos Stefanadis,Erling Falk,Gregg W. Stone,Martin B. Leon,Morteza Naghavi +13 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that a combination of structural assessment and vasa vasorum density imaging by IVUS can serve as the most powerful clinically available tool for characterization of vulnerable plaques.
Journal ArticleDOI
Smoking and atherosclerosis: mechanisms of disease and new therapeutic approaches.
Gerasimos Siasos,Vasiliki Tsigkou,Eleni Kokkou,Evangelos Oikonomou,Manolis Vavuranakis,Charalambos Vlachopoulos,Alexis Verveniotis,Maria Limperi,Vasiliki Genimata,Athanasios G. Papavassiliou,Christodoulos Stefanadis,Dimitris Tousoulis +11 more
TL;DR: The aim of this review is to depict the physical and biochemical properties of cigarette smoke and elucidate the main pathophysiological mechanisms of cigarette-induced atherosclerosis and overview the new therapeutic approaches for smoking cessation and augmentation of cardiovascular health.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of vascular wall shear stress and implications for atherosclerotic disease
Theodore G. Papaioannou,Emmanouil N. Karatzis,Manolis Vavuranakis,John Lekakis,Christodoulos Stefanadis +4 more
TL;DR: The basic mechanical and haemodynamic phenomena related to the forces applied to arterial walls, especially shear stresses and the shear-induced physiologic and pathophysiologic processes focusing on those related to atherosclerotic disease are described.
