Journal ArticleDOI

The evolution of coronary stents: a brief review.

TL;DR: Although DESs have incrementally improved outcomes after percutaneous coronary intervention, delayed re-endothelialization and stent thrombosis remain important challenges.
Journal ArticleDOI

Extracellular Release of the Atheroprotective Heat Shock Protein 27 Is Mediated by Estrogen and Competitively Inhibits acLDL Binding to Scavenger Receptor-A

TL;DR: HSP27 is atheroprotective, perhaps because of its ability to compete for the uptake of atherogenic lipids or attenuate inflammation in macrophages treated with estrogen or acLDL.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modulation of Estrogen Signaling by the Novel Interaction of Heat Shock Protein 27, a Biomarker for Atherosclerosis, and Estrogen Receptor β

TL;DR: HSP27, an ER&bgr;-associated protein, shows attenuated expression with coronary atherosclerosis and modulates estrogen signaling.
Journal ArticleDOI

Heat Shock Protein 27 Protects Against Atherogenesis via an Estrogen-Dependent Mechanism. Role of Selective Estrogen Receptor Beta Modulation

TL;DR: Whether estrogens are required for the observed atheroprotective benefits of HSP27 as well as its extracellular release and atheroprotection is estrogen dependent.
