Effect of alcohol consumption on endothelial function in men with coronary artery disease.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND AIMS:Endothelium inflammation, which can lead to endothelial activation and dysfunction, is widely accepted as the major event in multiple vascular disorders. The lncRNA HOXA-AS2 was previously reported to be involved in multiple inflammation-linked cancers. However, the role of HOXA-AS2 in endothelium i...
