SERPINE1 Regulates Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell Survival: Attenuation of Neointimal Hyperplasia with a Small Molecule Functional Inhibitor That Promotes SERPINE1 Cleavage

Author(s):

Paul J Higgins

Restenosis is a pathological form of wound healing following endovascular interventions that involves increased vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) migration/proliferation combined with reduced apoptosis resulting in luminal narrowing. The incidence of restenosis varies (range 20-50%) among the specific procedures used (e.g., stenting vs. balloon angioplasty) and the vessel site. Of the several factors implicated in the vascular response to i... view more»
