Disease relevance of Endarterectomy

 

High impact information on Endarterectomy

  • However, smokers had a significantly higher content of collagen in coronary endarterectomy specimens and the aorta and a higher content of cholesterol in the aorta than non-smokers [6].
  • The content of cholesterol or collagen relative to protein in the aorta or endarterectomy specimens did not correlate with serum total cholesterol, triglyceride, or high-density-lipoprotein cholesterol, nor were there any significant differences between samples from normotensive and hypertensive patients [6].
  • INTERVENTION: Eighty-three patients (90 endarterectomies) were randomly assigned to receive oral aspirin, 325 mg, plus dipyridamole, 75 mg, beginning 12 hours preoperatively, followed by a second dose administered within 8 hours after the operation, and given three times daily thereafter for 1 year [7].
  • METHODS AND RESULTS: To determine the cellular source and location of MMP-1 in human carotid atherosclerotic lesions, in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry were performed on 20 endarterectomy specimens [8].
  • Red, fibrin-rich thrombi within the thromboendarterectomy specimens were lined with a single layer of endothelial cells exhibiting high levels of PAI-1 antigen [9].

Gene context of Endarterectomy

  • In atherosclerotic arteries, TFPI protein and mRNA were detected in three of six internal carotid plaques from patients undergoing endarterectomy, and mRNA alone was detected in one further specimen [29].
  • In PBMCs obtained from those patients the day of endarterectomy, NF-kappaB activation and FasL expression were significantly increased compared with healthy controls (1.5+/-0.1 versus 0.5+/-0.1 and 2.1+/-0.1 versus 1.2+/-0.1 arbitrary units, respectively; P<0.001) [30].
  • METHODS: The basal rate of PAI-1 release from cultured human adult endothelial cells was studied in both a well-plate-seeding model and after seeding onto human endarterectomy specimens [31].
  • RESULTS: The concentration of OPG and OPN within the proximal internal carotid (PIC) part of the endarterectomy specimen removed from symptomatic patients was elevated 2- and 4-fold, respectively [32].
  • Thus, we investigated the role of MBL in restenosis after eversion endarterectomy in patients with severe carotid atherosclerosis [33].
