Abstract excerpt
Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) regulates vascular function and represents a novel therapeutic target in vascular diseases. In this work, a new approach based on fiber-optic Raman spectroscopy and spectral modelling was used to characterize the chemical content of the PVAT of the internal mammary artery (IMA) of patients with advanced coronary atherosclerosis (n = 10) undergoing coronary bypass surgery. Our...
