The influence of stent material and diabetes on macrophages trans-differentiation pathways in the progression of in-stent restenosis

The outcome of the deployment of cardiovascular stents in coronary arteries compromised by atherosclerosis may be affected by the deposition of a myofibroblast-driven neointimal tissue and consequent re-blockage of the vessel lumen known as instent restenosis (ISR). Its incidence is particularly hig...
