Published in 2017 at "Artery Research"

DOI: 10.1016/j.artres.2017.06.006

Abstract: Abstract Introduction Arterial restenosis after angioplasty/stenting has hindered coronary artery disease treatment, especially in diabetics. We theorized that gastrin-releasing peptide (GRP) antagonists and growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) antagonists might decrease neointimal hyperplasia and restenosis in… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "European Journal of Pharmacology"

DOI: 10.1016/j.ejphar.2019.03.037

Abstract: ABSTRACT Stress‐induced altered visceral sensation and impaired gut barrier play an important role in the pathophysiology of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). These responses were demonstrated to be peripheral corticotropin‐releasing factor (CRF) dependent and also mediated… read more here.
