Role of Mental Stress in Cardiovascular Disease
The pathophysiology of how mental stress affects and modulates the cardiovascular system is incompletely understood. Chronic stress has long been suspected to be a risk factor for cardiovascular disorders (CVD), either through direct or indirect mechanisms.1,2 Stress is known to activate two biological systems: the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal…

Topic: Atherosclerosis (Clinical), Cardiac Catheterisation
The lymphatic system has been suggested to play an important role in cholesterol metabolism and cardiovascular disease. Vascular endothelial growth factor-C (VEGF-C) plays a key role in lymphangiogenesis. Recently, we demonstrated that VEGF-C is closely associated with dyslipidemia and atherosclerosis. However, the relationship between…

Since endothelial damage and dysfunction play a critical role in atherosclerotic disease, research interest has aimed at evaluating the role of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) in vascular endothelial layer maintenance. In contrast to local resident endothelial cells, which have a poor proliferative rate, the regenerative capacity of EPCs and their ability to integrate into blood vessels have…

Over the last 30–40 years in most Western countries, for the first time the number of people developing coronary artery disease (CAD) and mortality rates from cardiovascular disease has gradually decreased. This reduction has been mainly achieved using nationwide atherosclerotic risk-factor control programmes. Nevertheless, cardiovascular diseases remain the major cause of premature death in the…
