Effect of intravenous calcitonin gene related peptide on ischaemia threshold and coronary stenosis severity in humans.

abstract：OBJECTIVES:Collagen synthesis is one of the major mechanisms of primary atherosclerotic plaque growth and is likely to be similarly important in restenosis. The patterns of collagen gene expression in human restenosis and associations with thrombosis/hemorrhage have not been described. METHODS:Using human coronary art...
