Although current treatments for restenosis attempt to prevent the development of intimal hyperplasia, an alternative strategy is to induce intimal atrophy after restenosis has developed. Because platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) is a smooth muscle cell growth and survival factor, we tested the hypothesis that complete blockade of PDGF by using antibodies against PDGF receptors alpha and beta would cause intimal atrophy in a baboon vascular graft model.
