제목 Comparison of inflammatory response in drug-eluting stents coated with various biodegradable polymers
초록 Biodegradable polymers have been used to develop cardiovascular prostheses such as vascular grafts and stents. However, thrombosis, inflammation, and restenosis that are associated with implant are still major obstacles for the use of these devices. The lack of endothelial cell (EC) lining (endothelialization) and the response of immune systems to the stents have been associated with these complications. In addition, several clinical studies have focused on the early markers or initiators of the inflammatory response in coronary stenting. The clinical reports demonstrated that some inflammatory markers, C-reactive protein (CRP), IL-6, and IL-1 exhibited relative rise in the first 10 minutes after inserting stent. We have examined the expression levels of IL-6 after treating smooth muscle cell (SMC) and EC with the degradation product of various polymers and sirolimus (SRL).
