pubmed:abstractText |
Instability of coronary atheroma leads to the onset of acute coronary syndromes including myocardial infarction and death, as well as to the progression of the arteriosclerotic disease. As yet, the underlying factors and mechanisms causing plaque rupture are not completely understood. Since a low content of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) apparently plays a key role, the question points to the events leading to the loss of intimal SMCs.
