Nanomedicine captures cardiovascular disease.
Nanomedicine, the research field that makes use of nanoparticulate agents for biomedical applications, is well established in oncology.1 In fact, the application of nanotechnology in medicine started with, and is most prominently present in, targeted therapeutics for cancer. The initial goals included altering pharmacokinetics, increasing the percentage of injected dose to reach the tumor, acco...
متن کاملAnti-inflammatory Nanomedicine for Cardiovascular Disease
Coronary artery disease, in the development of which inflammation mediated by innate immune cells plays a critical role, is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. The 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase inhibitors (statins) are a widely used lipid-lowering drug that has lipid-independent vasculoprotective effects, such as improvement of endothelial dysfunction, antioxidant pr...
متن کاملTissue Factor and Cardiovascular Disease:
Under physiological conditions, the coagulation system is designed to maintain the circulating blood in a fluid state, but act towards restoration of vascular integrity by rapid clot formation after vessel injury. Historically, the coagulation cascade was divided into 2 major systems: the extrinsic and the intrinsic pathway (Figure 1).1 The tissue factor (TF)factor VII/VIIa (FVII/FVIIa) complex...
متن کاملCell Therapy in Cardiovascular Disease
Recently, cell therapy has sparked a revolution in ischemic heart disease that will in the future help clinicians to cure patients. Earlier investigations in animal models and clinical trials have suggested that positive paracrine effects such as neoangiogenesis and anti-apoptotic can improve myocardial function. In this regard the Royan cell therapy center designed a few trials in collaborat...
متن کاملComparison of Epicardial Adipose Tissue Fatty Acid Profile in Cardiovascular Disease Patients Diabetic and Non-Diabetic
ABSTRACT Background and Objective: The relationship between diabetes mellitus and increased risk of cardiovascular diseases has been demonstrated. The aim of this study was to determine the fatty acid profile of epicardial adipose tissue in diabetic and non-diabetic patients with cardiovascular disease. &nb...
