Treatment with sulphated galactan inhibits macrophage chemotaxis and reduces intraplaque macrophage content in atherosclerotic mice

Experimental data from animal models and clinical studies support connections between the haemostasis and inflammation in atherogenesis. These interfaces among inflammation and thrombogenesis have been suggested as targets for pharmacological intervention ...

Diminazene enhances stability of atherosclerotic plaques in ApoE-deficient mice

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Rafaela Fernandes Da Silva, Fabiana Pereira Da Costa Fraga, Maiia Bragina

Angiotensin (Ang) II contributes to the development of atherosclerosis, while Ang-(1-7) has atheroprotective actions. Accordingly, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), which breaks-down Aug 11 and forms Ang-(1-7), has been suggested as a target against ...

Vulnerable Plaque Detection and Quantification with Gold Particle-Enhanced Computed Tomography in Atherosclerotic Mouse Models

Bram Trachet, Patrick Segers

Recently, an apolipoprotein E-deficient (ApoE(-/-)) mouse model with a mutation (C1039G+/-) in the fibrillin-1 (Fbn1) gene (ApoE(-/-)Fbn1(C1039G+/-) mouse model) was developed showing vulnerable atherosclerotic plaques, prone to rupture, in contrast to the ...

Determination of a shear rate threshold for thrombus formation in intracranial aneurysms

Orestis Pileas Malaspinas, Ricardo Alberto Corredor Jerez, Bastien Chopard

Particular intra-aneurysmal blood flow conditions, created naturally by the growth of an aneurysm or induced artificially by implantation of a flow diverter stent (FDS), can potentiate intra-aneurysmal thrombosis. The aim of this study was to identify hemo ...

Anti-apoA-1 auto-antibodies increase mouse atherosclerotic plaque vulnerability, myocardial necrosis and mortality triggering TLR2 and TLR4

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos

Auto-antibodies to apolipoprotein A-1 (anti-apoA-1 IgG) were shown to promote inflammation and atherogenesis, possibly through innate immune receptors signalling. Here, we aimed at investigating the role of Toll-like receptors (TLR) 2 and 4 on anti-apoA-1 ...

Nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase inhibition reduces intraplaque CXCL1 production and associated neutrophil infiltration in atherosclerotic mice

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Katia Galan, Rafaela Fernandes Da Silva

Pharmacological treatments targeting CXC chemokines and the associated neutrophil activation and recruitment into atherosclerotic plaques hold promise for treating cardiovascular disorders. Therefore, we investigated whether FK866, a nicotinamide phosphori ...

Self-Navigation with Compressed Sensing for 2D translational Motion Correction in Free-Breathing Coronary MRI: a Feasibility Study

Yves Wiaux, Gilles Puy, Ruud van Heeswijk, Davide Piccini, Gabriele Vincenzo Bonanno

Purpose Respiratory motion correction remains a challenge in coronary magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and current techniques, such as navigator gating, suffer from sub-optimal scan efficiency and ease-of-use. To overcome these limitations, an image-based ...

Treatment with Angiotensin-(1-7) reduces inflammation in carotid atherosclerotic plaques

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Katia Galan, Rafaela Fernandes Da Silva, Fabiana Pereira Da Costa Fraga, Luciano Dos Santos Aggum Capettini

Angiotensin (Ang)-(1-7), acting through the receptor Mas, has athero-protective effects; however, its role on plaque vulnerability has been poorly studied. Here, we investigated the expression of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) components in stable and ...

Differential X-ray phase contrast tomography of Alzheimer plaques in mouse models: perspectives for drug development and clinical imaging techniques

Peter Modregger, Marco Stampanoni

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a looming threat on an ever-ageing population, with devastating effects on the human intellect. A particular characteristic lesion - the extracellular amyloid plaque - accumulates in the brain of AD patients during the course of ...

Deletion of Sirt3 does not affect atherosclerosis but accelerates weight gain and impairs rapid metabolic adaptation in LDL receptor knockout mice: implications for cardiovascular risk factor development

Johan Auwerx, Julien Weber, Yuan Liu, Chad Brokopp

Sirt3 is a mitochondrial NAD(+)-dependent deacetylase that governs mitochondrial metabolism and reactive oxygen species homeostasis. Sirt3 deficiency has been reported to accelerate the development of the metabolic syndrome. However, the role of Sirt3 in a ...
