Vascular matrix remodeling in patients with bicuspid aortic valve malformations: implications for aortic dilatation.
- P. Fedak, M. D. de Sa, +6 authors T. David
- Medicine
- The Journal of thoracic and cardiovascular…
- 1 September 2003
BACKGROUND
Patients with bicuspid aortic valve malformations are at an increased risk of aortic dilatation, aneurysm formation, and dissection. Vascular tissues with deficient fibrillin-1… Expand
Matrix remodeling in experimental and human heart failure: a possible regulatory role for TIMP-3.
- P. Fedak, S. Altamentova, +8 authors R. Li

- 1 February 2003
In the failing heart, an imbalance in matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their biological regulators, the tissue inhibitors of MMPs (TIMPs), may result in cardiac dilatation from matrix… Expand
Decorin inhibition of PDGF-stimulated vascular smooth muscle cell function: potential mechanism for inhibition of intimal hyperplasia after balloon angioplasty.
- N. Nili, A. Cheema, +8 authors B. Strauss
- Biology, Medicine
- The American journal of pathology
- 1 September 2003
Decorin is a small proteoglycan that binds to transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) and inhibits its activity. However, its interaction with platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), involved in… Expand
