Neuropeptide Y Receptors in Carotid Plaques of Symptomatic and Asymptomatic Patients: Effect of Inflammatory Cytokines

AIMS: Cytokines released by the immune cells at the site of plaque milieu induce smooth muscle cell apoptosis to promote plaque instability. But, neuropeptide Y (NPY), a pleotropic factor, may modulate the effects of cytokines in atherosclerotic plaques of patients with carotid stenosis. Our aim was...
