Statin Targeted Treatment Against Intimal Hyperplasia Using Unique Chitosan-PLGA Nanoparticles
2024-07-30
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Introduction: Statins have pleiotropic effects, including reducing intimal hyperplasia (IH). Using unique nanoparticle (NPs), we hypothesized chitosan-functionalized polymeric NPs loaded with simvastatin (SL-cNPs) would: 1) readily associate with endothelial cells (ECs) and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs); 2) affect EC and VSMC function; and 3) reduce IH compared to systemic simva...
