A pyrrole-imidazole polyamide targeting transforming growth factor-beta1 inhibits restenosis and preserves endothelialization in the injured artery.

abstract：AIMS:ATP sensitive K(+) channels (K(ATP)) sense adenine nucleotide concentrations and thus couple the metabolic state of the cell to membrane potential.
