Three Researchers Awarded $1 million Each to Study New Heart Disease Treatments, Causes

DAIC

We will use modern technologies to explore the great number of chemicals in the food supply. Blood lipids such as cholesterol and triglycerides are causal risk factors for coronary heart disease as well as several other types of cardiovascular disease , such as aortic stenosis). Our approach is much larger in scope,” Loscalzo said. “We

Case Report: Kommerell's diverticulum and left aberrant subclavian artery stenosis hybrid treatment with branched aortic stent-graft

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine

Imaging techniques and modeling technology allow a more personalized strategy for each patient. In this case, we present a symptomatic patient with a Kommerell's diverticulum and a left aberrant subclavian artery complicated by proximal stenosis and poststenotic aneurysm.

Mineralocorticoid Receptors in Vascular Smooth Muscle: Blood Pressure and Beyond

Hypertension Journal

After half a century of evidence suggesting the existence of mineralocorticoid receptors (MR) in the vasculature, the advent of technology to specifically knockout the MR from smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in mice has elucidated contributions of SMC-MR to cardiovascular function and disease, independent of the kidney.
