Salusin-α Inhibits Proliferation and Migration of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell via Akt/mTOR Signaling Open
Background/Aims: The proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are key steps in the progression of atherosclerosis. The aim of the present study was to investigate the potential roles of salusin-α in the functions…

Differential Patterns of Secreted Frizzled-Related Protein 4 (SFRP4) in Adipocyte Differentiation: Adipose Depot Specificity Open
Background/Aims: Secreted frizzled-related protein 4 (SFRP4) is a member of the SFRP family that acts as soluble modulators of Wnt signaling. Given the substantial rise in obesity, depot-specific fat accumulation and its associated disease…

Overexpression of Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein Increases Macrophage-Derived Foam Cell Accumulation in Atherosclerotic Lesions of Transgenic Rabbits Open
High levels of plasma high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) are inversely associated with the risk of atherosclerosis and other cardiovascular diseases; thus, pharmacological inhibition of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) i…

Peginterferon and Chinese herbs exert a combinatorial effect in HBeAg-positive chronic hepatitis B Open
Introduction: Traditional Chinese herbs are widely used for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B (CHB) in China. The aim of this study was to perform a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs) comparing peginterferon therapies …

Combined use of probucol and cilostazol with atorvastatin attenuates atherosclerosis in moderately hypercholesterolemic rabbits Open
These data demonstrated that combined drug treatment exhibits potent athero-protective effects via pleiotropic functions, such as anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative stress, which is independent of the lipid-lowering effect.

Autocrine Human Urotensin II Enhances Macrophage-Derived Foam Cell Formation in Transgenic Rabbits Open
Circulating urotensin II (UII) is involved in the development of atherosclerosis. However, the role of autocrine UII in the development of atherosclerosis remains unclear. Here, we tested the hypothesis that autocrine UII would promote ath…
