Decreased Expression of Vitamin D Receptors in Neointimal Lesions following Coronary Artery Angioplasty in Atherosclerotic Swine

BACKGROUND: Inflammatory cytokines, such as TNF-α, play a key role in the pathogenesis of occlusive vascular diseases. Activation of vitamin D receptors (VDR) elicits both growth-inhibitory and anti-inflammatory effects. Here, we investigated the expression of TNF-α and VDR in post-angioplasty coron...
