Prostaglandins, such as thromboxane A(2) (TxA(2)) and prostacyclin (PGI(2)), are bioactive lipid mediators that are implicated in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. In the current study, we tested the hypothesis that thromboxane synthase (TXAS), prostacyclin synthase (PGIS) and thromboxane receptor (TP) are expressed within the atherosclerotic lesion.
