pubmed:abstractText
Human acute coronary syndrome refers to the spectrum of clinical manifestations of overt coronary artery (CAD) disease characterized by atherosclerotic plaque destabilization and resultant myocardial injury. Typically studied as distinct pathologies, emerging pathogenic paradigms implicate multiple processes beyond thrombosis and ischemic cell injury respectively, with significant pathway overlap involving inflammation, apoptosis, matrix degradation, and oxidative stress. However, all these pathways have also been implicated in still-quiescent coronary plaque progression, thus making it harder to pinpoint the turnkey events leading to overt-CAD. Analysis of transcription profiles could identify a working framework of pathogenesis distinguishing overt-CAD.
