Impairment of platelet NO signalling in coronary artery spasm: role of hydrogen sulphide
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "British Journal of Pharmacology"
DOI: 10.1111/bph.15388
Abstract: The pathophysiology of coronary artery spasm (CAS), with its associated ischaemic crises, is currently poorly understood and treatment is frequently ineffective. In view of increasing evidence that platelet‐based defects may occur in CAS patients, we… read more here.

Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2019 at "European Cardiology Review"
DOI: 10.15420/ecr.2019.3.2
Abstract: Perivascular adipose tissue, which constitutes perivascular components along with the adventitial vasa vasorum, plays an important role as a source of various inflammatory mediators in cardiovascular disease. Inflammatory changes in the coronary adventitia are thought… read more here.

DOI: 10.15420/ecr.2022.47
Abstract: Calcium channel blockers (CCBs) are the first-line treatment for coronary artery spasm (CAS). When CAS-related angina symptoms are not well controlled by CCB therapy, long-acting nitrates or (where available) nicorandil can be added as second-line… read more here.
