Aims: Cyclooxygenase-2-derived prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) is thought to promote vascular intimal hyperplasia (IH). It has been reported that the PGE2 receptor EP4 is upregulated in injured vessels, and that EP4 signaling in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) promotes IH. In contrast, EP4 in endothelial cells has been demonstrated to restrain IH.

Elucidating the role of graft compliance mismatch on intimal

Loss of patency due to intimal hyperplasia remains a leading cause of failure of small diameter synthetic grafts [5]. It has long been hypothesized that intimal hyperplasia develops at the distal anastomosis due to compliance mismatch between the low compliance synthetic graft and the high compliance artery [5]. However, it has been difficult ...

A review of the current state in neointimal hyperplasia …

The shifted VSMC migration into the intima and the accumulation of extracellular matrix are hallmarks of intimal hyperplasia . Circulating mitogens, such as angiotensin II and plasmin, may be involved in VSMC proliferation and migration owing to overexposure based on endothelial denudation (Fig. 1). Open in a separate window ...

Inhibition of heat shock protein 90 attenuates post‑angioplasty intimal

Intimal hyperplasia (IH) is a pathologic process that leads to restenosis after treatment for peripheral arterial disease. Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) is a molecular chaperone that regulates protein maturation. Activation of HSP90 results in increased cell migration and proliferation. 17‑N‑allylamino‑17‑demethoxygeldanamycin (17‑AAG ...
