Pathologic intimal thickening in human atherosclerosis is formed by extracellular accumulation of plasma-derived lipids and dispersion of intimal smooth muscle cells.

Atherosclerosis - 1 Jul 2018

Nakagawa Kazunori, Nakashima Yutaka

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Pathologic intimal thickening (PIT) is an important stage of atherosclerosis that leads to atheroma. The present study aimed to clarify the pathogenesis of PIT in humans. METHODS: Coronary arteries were obtained from 43 autopsy subjects aged 15-49 years. Non-atherosclerotic intima and atherosclerotic intimal lesions were classified into four groups, i.e. diffuse intimal thickening, fatty...
