    Abstract : Nitric oxide (NO) is expressed in inflammatory tissues. However, NO effects are controversial in inflammation; NO is described as acting in a dose dependent manner and possess both pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory properties. READ MORE

  4. 2. Aortic valve calcification : in vivo and ex vivo evaluation

    Author : Mohamed Yousry; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Aortic valve calcification (AVC) or thickening is found in around one fifth of the general population between 65-75 years of age and increasingly thereafter. The process of aortic valve thickening and calcification is not only an aging (wear and tear) process of the valve leaflets. It is now considered to be closely related to atherosclerosis. READ MORE
