RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: Many centers consider postdilation if the final angiography after carotid artery stenting (CAS) shows residual stenosis of >30% to 40%. Postdilation has been demonstrated to potentially increase the risk of developing neurologic events. This study aimed to investigate the safety of CAS without postdilation regardless of the degree of residual stenosis. METHODS: We retrospectively investigated 191 patients who underwent transfemoral CAS without postdilation intendedly. All cases underwent mild predilation and self-expanding stent implantation. We divided the patients into a residual stenosis of ≥40% group (n = 69 [36.1%]) and a residual stenosis of <40% group (n = 122 [63.9%]) according to their final angiography. We compared the procedural (within 30 days after CAS) and nonprocedural (afterward) adverse cardiovascular events and in-stent restenosis between the two groups. We also investigated the incidence of perioperative hemodynamic depression between the groups and the changes in residual stenosis over the follow-up time. RESULTS: Patients in the residual stenosis of ≥40% group had a higher preoperative stenosis rate and a greater proportion of severely calcified lesions than those in the <40% group. There was one procedural cardiac death (0.5%), five strokes (2.6%), and four myocardial infarctions (2.1%). A total of 2.9% had stroke or death procedurally in the residual stenosis of ≥40% group and 3.2% in the residual stenosis of <40% group (P > .950). The median nonprocedural follow-up time was 22 months, with a total of six deaths and four strokes. The cumulative 2-year death or stroke rate was 6.2%, with 5.9% in the residual stenosis of ≥40% group versus 6.7% in the residual stenosis of <40% group (P = .507). There were two cases of in-stent restenosis in the residual stenosis of ≥40% group and three in the residual stenosis of <40% group (P = .927). The difference in the peak systolic velocity of the target lesion between groups at 3 months after CAS was no longer present, and residual stenosis stabilized at 10% to 20% at 6 months in both groups. The patients showed an association between increasing hemodynamic depression incidence and residual stenosis in a significantly graded response (P = .021). CONCLUSIONS: Residual stenosis after carotid stenting without postdilation is not associated with a risk of postoperative adverse events. This study provides evidence for the feasibility of a no postdilation strategy for CAS.

BACKGROUND: Transcarotid Artery Revascularization (TCAR) using the ENROUTE system (Silk Road) has been proposed as a safe and effective alternative to both carotid endarterectomy (CEA) and transfemoral carotid artery stenting (TF-CAS). Two large registries (ROADSTER 1 and ROADSTER 2) have shown that TCAR has acceptable/low rates of perioperative stroke/death. This study will analyze the 30-day perioperative and 1-year clinical outcomes from a single-center. PATIENT POPULATION AND METHODS: This is a retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data from SVS/VQI TCAR surveillance project (TSP) of 100 consecutive patients (102 TCAR procedures) done in our institution. These procedures were done for high-risk patients for CEA, which included anatomical (previous CEA, high cervical lesion, neck radiation, stoma, arch type, etc.), physiological (CHF, severe coronary artery disease, COPD on O2 therapy, etc.) and combined anatomical/physiological reasons. These procedures were done by vascular surgeons after receiving the appropriate training. The perioperative stroke, death, and MI rates were analyzed. Kaplan Meyer analysis was used to estimate rate of freedom from stroke/death and the incidence of ≥50% and ≥80% in-stent restenosis at 1 year. RESULTS: 100 consecutive high-risk patients for CEA included: 38% anatomical, 44% physiological, and 18% combined anatomical and physiological reasons. The mean age was 72.5 years (range 52-90 years). Indications for TCAR were 34% for symptomatic lesions (TIA/stroke) and 66% for asymptomatic lesions. Mean ipsilateral treated stenosis was 80.4%. Contralateral ≥50% stenosis/occlusion was present in 31% of patients. Technical success rate was 100%. 92% had pre-stenting PTA and 26% had post-stenting PTA. The mean flow reversal time was 8.5 min (range 3-26 min). The 30-day perioperative stroke rate was 2.9% (1/67, 1.5% for asymptomatic patients), the stroke/death rate was 2.9%, and stroke/death and MI rate was 3.9% (4/102). Other perioperative complications included cranial nerve injury 3/102 (2.9%), carotid artery dissection (2%), and major hematoma (necessitated operation evacuation) (5.9%). Freedom from stroke rates and stroke/death rates at 1 year were: 90% and 89%. Freedom from ≥50% and ≥80% in-stent restenosis rates at 1 year were 82% and 90%, respectively. None of these restenosis were symptomatic except two (2/13). Freedom from reintervention rate at 1 year was 98%. CONCLUSION: Although the perioperative events were somewhat higher than what has been reported in previous registries, TCAR for patients who are high-risk for CEA has a low perioperative stroke and stroke/death rates with satisfactory outcome at 1 year. Further long-term data is probably needed to verify long-term outcome.

OBJECTIVE: The Wallstent (WS; Boston Scientific, Malborough, MA) is currently the standard of care for comparisons of clinical efficacy for new stent devices in the treatment of iliac vein outflow disease. Many vein-specific Nitinol-based stents have been now approved by the Food and Drug Administration for use in the iliofemoral venous system. However, few comparisons of these devices to the current standard have been reported. The purpose of this investigation was to compare the complication and reintervention rates between the WS and Venovo stent (VS; BD, Franklin Lakes, NJ). METHODS: A random sample of 100 WS and 100 VS cases performed from April 2018 through December 2020 were selected for retrospective analysis. The demographics, presenting symptoms, and CEAP (Clinical, Etiology, Anatomy, Pathophysiology) class were assessed. The complication logs and 90-day follow-up data were reviewed for every case to assess the incidence of postoperative deep vein thrombosis, stent thrombosis, in-stent restenosis, bleeding, and transient back pain. RESULTS: WSs had been placed more often in the left common iliac vein segment (52 vs 1), and VSs had been placed more often in the left common iliac vein and external iliac vein segments (36 vs 63; P = .0069). The average diameter and length of the WSs and VSs were 19.7 ± 2.2 mm vs 15 ± 1.4 mm (P = 2.4∗10-44) and 80.8 ± 9 mm vs 117.6 ± 20.4 mm (P = 2.4∗10-38), respectively. The average number of stents per patient was 1.05 for the WSs and 1.03 for the VSs (P = .47). The reintervention rates were similar between the two groups: WS, n = 5; and VS, n = 4 (P = .74). Four of the five WS reinterventions were stent extensions to treat in-stent restenosis and recurrence of symptoms, and one was secondary to occlusion requiring ipsilateral venoplasty and stenting. Two of the four VS reinterventions were venoplasty for in-stent restenosis and two were stent extensions for symptom recurrence. Transient back pain was the most common complication (WS, 37%; VS, 47%; P = 0.28). Insertion site deep vein thrombosis had developed in the three patients in the WS group and four patients in the VS group (P = .71). No patient had experienced bleeding requiring hospitalization, and no stent fractures, stent migration, or deaths had occurred. CONCLUSIONS: The complication and reintervention rates between the WS and VS groups were similar. Both stents demonstrated evidence of in-stent stenosis requiring reintervention. Implanted VSs tended to be smaller in diameter and longer in length and covered the common and external iliac veins more often compared with the WSs. Therefore, one VS can be used to cover two territories compared with the WS for which two stents will be required to cover the same vein territory length.

RATIONALE: Lower extremity arteriosclerosis obliterans (ASO) disease is caused by the formation of atherosclerotic plaque in the femoral artery, which causes the stenosis and occlusion of lower legs, and then leads to chronic limb ischemia. Stent intervention is the most common treatment for ASO in the lower extremities, although there is a risk of overstretching or fracturing the stent, resulting in stent rupture. We provide a unique method for treating stent rupture. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 79-year-old male presented with intermittent claudication of the left lower limb for 6 months. Five years ago, a stent was placed in the lower extremity femoral artery. According to the examination, the stent suffered a modest torsional fracture. DIAGNOSIS: The case was diagnosed with lower extremity ASO. INTERVENTIONS: We performed a combination of femoral endarterectomy and interventional surgery. OUTCOMES: Blood flow was restored after the hybrid operation has been used to treat arterial stenosis in the lower limbs. CONCLUSION: Integrating vascular interventional surgeries can shorten surgical procedures time and increase success rates.

PURPOSE: Carotid artery stenting (CAS) appears as a promising alternative treatment to carotid endarterectomy for radiation therapy (RT)-induced carotid stenosis. However, this is based on a poor level of evidence studies (small sample size, primarily single institution reports, few long-term data). The purpose of this study was to report the long-term outcomes of a multicentric series of CAS for RT-induced stenosis. METHODS: All CAS for RT-induced stenosis performed in 11 French academic institutions from 2005 to 2017 were collected in this retrospective study. Patient demographics, clinical risk factors, elapsed time from RT, clinical presentation and imaging parameters of carotid stenosis were preoperatively gathered. Long-term outcomes were determined by clinical follow-up and duplex ultrasound. The primary endpoint was the occurrence of cerebrovascular events during follow-up. Secondary endpoints included perioperative morbidity and mortality rate, long-term mortality rate, primary patency, and target lesion revascularization. RESULTS: One hundred and twenty-one CAS procedures were performed in 112 patients. The mean interval between irradiation and CAS was 15 ± 12 years. In 31.4% of cases, the lesion was symptomatic. Mean follow-up was 42.5 ± 32.6 months (range 1-141 months). The mortality rate at 5 years was 23%. The neurologic event-free survival and the in-stent restenosis rates at 5 years were 87.8% and 38.9%, respectively. Diabetes mellitus (p=0.02) and single postoperative antiplatelet therapy (p=0.001) were found to be significant predictors of in-stent restenosis. Freedom from target lesion revascularization was 91.9% at 5 years. CONCLUSION: This study showed that CAS is an effective option for RT-induced stenosis in patients not favorable to carotid endarterectomy. The CAS was associated with a low rate of neurological events and reinterventions at long-term follow-up.

This study aimed to investigate the mechanism of human umbilical cord blood stem cell (HUCBSC) transplantation on restenosis after percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) for diabetic hindlimb vascular disease in rabbits. After successfully preparing a rabbit model of diabetic hindlimb vascular disease, 16 rabbits were randomly assigned to two groups. Of these, 8 rabbits received PTA surgery alone (PTA group), and the other 8 rabbits received PTA and HUCBSC (PTA+HUCBSC group) treatments. Five more healthy rabbits were set as healthy control (HC group). Samples were collected after 4 weeks of treatment. The expressions of regulator of calcineurin 1 (RCAN1) and calcineurin A (CnA) in the diseased artery were detected by immunofluorescence staining. The distribution of HUCBSCs was observed by pathological examination in transplanted artery, distal artery, and liver. Cytology experiments were applied to assess the levels of JAK and STAT3, and the migration and proliferation of human aortic vascular smooth muscle cells (HA-VSMC). In the rabbit model of diabetic vascular lesions in the hindlimbs, we found the stenosis of the femoral artery became more and more serious with time, and the expression level of PCNA positive cells was also gradually increased. The expression levels of RCAN1 and CnA in the PTA+HUCBSC group were significantly lower than those in PTA group. HUCBSC inhibited the migration and proliferation of HA-VSMC via JAK/STAT3 pathway. After HUCBSC local transplantation, HUCBSC had no distal tissue distribution. HUCBSC transplantation may prevent restenosis after PTA of diabetic hindlimb vascular disease through JAK/STAT3 pathway.

In-stent restenosis (ISR) remains a therapeutic challenge in the current drug-eluting stent (DES) era. Vascular brachytherapy (VBT) is a therapeutic option for ISR, but data about the outcomes of combination therapy with VBT and stenting for ISR lesions are sparse. We retrospectively analyzed patients who presented with ISR at our institution from 2003 through 2017. Three treatment arms were compared: VBT alone, VBT plus bare-metal stent (BMS), and VBT plus DES. Clinical, procedural, and 1-year outcome data were collected. Follow-up was obtained by phone calls and clinic visits. The patient cohort included 461 patients (764 ISR lesions). Of these, 333 patients (533 lesions) were treated with VBT alone, 89 patients (158 lesions) with VBT plus BMS, and 39 patients (73 lesions) with VBT plus DES. There were no significant differences in baseline characteristics among the 3 groups except for more patients with a remote smoking history in the VBT plus BMS (43.8%) and VBT plus DES groups (56.4%), and more patients with history of peripheral vascular disease (39.5%) and congestive heart failure (27%) in the VBT plus DES group. The most common clinical presentation was unstable angina (64.6%). In the VBT plus DES group, 10.3% of patients presented with MI, versus 5.5% in the VBT alone group and 2.2% in the VBT plus BMS group. At 1-year follow-up, the VBT plus DES group had higher rates of target vessel revascularization-major adverse cardiovascular events (38.5%) than the VBT plus BMS (21.3%) and VBT alone (15.6%) groups (pâ¯=â¯0.002). In conclusion, in patients with ISR, combination therapy with VBT and stenting at the same setup is associated with worse outcomes at 12 months and, if possible, should be avoided.

OBJECTIVE: Abnormal proliferation and migration of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are related to in-stent-restenosis (ISR) following percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Osteoprotegerin (OPG) has been implicated in various vascular diseases. However, the effects of OPG on ISR and the underlying mechanism remained elusive. We here investigated the association between OPG and ISR, and to demonstrate the role and potential mechanisms of OPG in neointimal hyperplasia. APPROACH AND RESULTS: From 2962 patients who received coronary angiography and follow-up coronary angiography at approximately one year, 291 patients were diagnosed with ISR, and another 291 gender- and age- matched patients without ISR were selected as controls. Serum OPG levels were significantly increased in patients with ISR. Multivariable logistic regression analysis indicated that OPG level was independently associated with the increased risk of ISR. In a mouse femoral artery wire injury model, upregulated OPG was evidenced in vascular tissue after injury. OPG deletion attenuated the vascular injury-induced neointimal hyperplasia and related gene expression in mice. OPG promoted neointimal hyperplasia and human aortic smooth muscle cell (hASMC) proliferation and migration through activation of yes-associated protein (YAP), a major downstream effector of the Hippo signaling pathway, whereas knockdown or inhibition of YAP in hASMCs blunted OPG-induced above effects. Moreover, we found that OPG, as a ligand for integrin αVß3, mediated phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) and actin cytoskeleton reorganization, resulting in YAP dephosphorylation in hASMCs. OPG-dependent YAP and VSMC activation was prevented by treatment with αVß3-blocking antibodies and inhibitors of FAK and actin stress fibers. CONCLUSIONS: Increased serum OPG levels are associated with increased risk of ISR following PCI and OPG could promote neointimal hyperplasia in response to injury through integrin αVß3 mediated FAK and YAP activation, indicating OPG/YAP inhibition might serve as an attractive novel target for the prevention of ISR after PCI.

Exercise program has been associated with improved cardiovascular outcomes in patients sustaining coronary artery disease. However, little is known about the role of exercise after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). Published literature was searched from Embase, PubMed, Wanfang Data, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Central Database. Exercise versus no exercise following PCI in the patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) was investigated in randomized trials. Left ventricular end diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), 6-minute walking distance (6MWD), cardiac death, myocardial infarction, coronary angioplasty, coronary artery bypass surgery (CABG), and angina pectoris or restenosis per randomized patients were analyzed by meta-analytic procedure to compare the curative effect of exercise program with exclusive exercise program after PCI. Ten randomized controlled trials including 1274 subjects (636 in exercise group and 638 in control group) were analyzed. The meta-analysis demonstrated that LVEF was significantly improved in exercise group (MD = 2.82, 95% CI [1.50, 4.14], p < 0.05). In contrast, the incidence rate of cardiac death (RR = 0.24, 95% CI [007, 0.76], p = 0.02), myocardial infarction (RR = 0.23, 95% CI [0.09, 0.57], p = 0.002), coronary angioplasty (RR = 0.47, 95% CI [0.26, 0.84], p = 0.01), angina pectoris (RR = 0.39, 95% CI [0.24, 0.64], p = 0.0002) and restenosis (RR = 0.36, 95% CI [0.16, 0.83], p = 0.02) were significantly lower in exercise group. LVEDD (MD = -2.01, 95% CI [-4.72, 0.70]), 6MWD (MD = 50.85, 95% CI [-13.24, 114.94]), and CABG (RD = -0.01, 95% CI [-0.05, 0.03]) were not significantly different in the patients with or without exercise (p = 0.71). Trial sequential analysis reflected traditional meta-analysis might generate a false positive conclusion for MI and cardiac death. There was no firm evidence to support the beneficial effects of exercise after PCI for the CHD patients to improve heart function or to reduce the incidence of adverse cardiovascular events.

BACKGROUND: In patients with complex true coronary bifurcation lesions (CBLs), Crush or Culotte stenting has been the commonest approaches of percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). However, the optimal one remains in debate. METHODS: A systematic review and meta-analysis of cohort studies searched from PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL), Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), VIP information database, and WangFang Data Information Site, to compare the long-term safety and efficacy of PCI with Crush versus Culotte in patients with CBLs. The primary end point was target lesion revascularization (TLR) and secondary end points were a composite of major adverse cardiac events (MACE) including cardiac death (CD), myocardial infarction (MI), stent thrombosis (ST), and target vessel revascularization (TVR) by PCI or bypass surgery, and each individual component at long-term follow-up. Furthermore, omitting each study in turn was used to sensitivity analysis for high heterogeneity of studies. RESULTS: A total of 7 studies were included to perform a meta-analysis, 3 randomized trials and 4 observational studies with 2211 patients, 1281 treated with Crush and 930 with Culotte. There was no significant difference in TLR and MACE between Crush and Culotte [RR 0.76, 95% CI (0.48-1.23), Iâ=â57%; RR 0.78, 95% CI (0.47-1.29), Iâ=â83%, respectively]. ST tended to be lower in patients treated with Crush [RR 0.61, 95% CI (0.37-1.01), Iâ=â23%]. CD and MI were comparable between the 2 groups [RR 0.80, 95% CI (0.43-1.49), Iâ=â0%; RR 0.74, 95% CI (0.49-1.13), Iâ=â32%, respectively]. TVR was also associated with the similar risk [RR 0.76, 95% CI (0.49-1.16), Iâ=â60%]. However, high heterogeneity was detected for TLR, MACE, and TVR, and the source of heterogeneity was DKCRUSH-III study by Chen, SL. CONCLUSIONS: In the treatment of coronary bifurcation lesions, TLR and MACE were not significant difference between the Crush and Culotte groups, but TLR and MACE were also regarded as high heterogeneity mainly due to better outcomes achieved by DK Crush and there was a trend toward lower ST in the Crush group. Crush, particularly DK Crush, may be superior to conventional Culotte for treatment of CBLs. PROSPERO REGISTRATION NUMBER: CRD42018111868.

Nickel is the most frequent allergen in patients with allergic contact dermatitis and nickel allergy has been associated with recurrent in-stent restenosis. However, it is often misdiagnosed because of a low suspicion threshold. It should be discarded in patients with recurrent in-stent restenosis, especially if their medical history reveals prior contact dermatitis. It is also noteworthy and rarely specified that even newer generation stents that use novel metal alloys also contain low amounts of nickel. To avoid the implantation of new stents containing this metal, when percutaneous coronary intervention is indicated, drug eluting balloons or bioresorbable vascular scaffolds associated with small doses of steroids could provide good alternatives of treatment. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first description of this therapeutic alternative in such an exceedingly rare clinical scenario.

We reported that native incretins, liraglutide and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4i) all confer an anti-atherosclerotic effect in apolipoprotein E-null (Apoe (-/-)) mice. We confirmed the anti-atherogenic property of incretin-related agents in the mouse wire injury model, in which the neointimal formation in the femoral artery is remarkably suppressed. Furthermore, we showed that DPP-4i substantially suppresses plaque formation in coronary arteries with a marked reduction in the accumulation of macrophages in cholesterol-fed rabbits. DPP-4i showed an anti-atherosclerotic effect in Apoe (-/-) mice mainly through the actions of glucagon-like peptide-1 and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypepide. However, the dual incretin receptor antagonists partially attenuated the suppressive effect of DPP-4i on atherosclerosis in diabetic Apoe (-/-) mice, suggesting an incretin-independent mechanism. Exendin-4 and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypepide elicited cyclic adenosine monophosphate generation, and suppressed the lipopolysaccharide-induced gene expression of inflammatory molecules, such as interleukin-1ß, interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α, in U937 human monocytes. This suppressive effect, however, was attenuated by an inhibitor of adenylate cyclase and mimicked by 8-bromo-cyclic adenosine monophosphate or forskolin. DPP-4i substantially suppressed the lipopolysaccharide-induced expression of inflammatory cytokines without affecting cyclic adenosine monophosphate generation or cell proliferation. DPP-4i more strongly suppressed the lipopolysaccharide-induced gene expression of inflammatory molecules than incretins, most likely through inactivation of CD26. Glucagon-like peptide-1 and glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypepide suppressed oxidized low-density lipoprotein-induced macrophage foam cell formation in a receptor-dependent manner, which was associated with the downregulation of acyl-coenzyme A cholesterol acyltransferase-1 and CD36, as well as the up-regulation of adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette transporter A1. Our studies strongly suggest that incretin-related agents have favorable effects on macrophage-driven atherosclerosis in experimental animals.

OBJECTIVE: To compare the clinical outcomes of patients undergoing percutaneous intervention for stent thrombosis (ST) or saphenous vein graft (SVG) occlusion. BACKGROUND: Patients presenting with ST or SVG occlusion are at increased risk of adverse outcomes. There is limited literature comparing the outcome of such patients. METHODS: A cohort of 415 consecutive patients presenting to the MedStar Washington Hospital Center undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for an acute coronary syndrome secondary to ST (n=136) or SVG occlusion (n=279) was studied. The SVG group was subdivided into patients who underwent PCI in the occluded SVG (SVG-PCI: n=75) or in the subtended native coronary artery (NC-PCI: n=204). The analyzed clinical parameters were in-hospital complications as well as 30-day and 1-year major adverse cardiac events (MACE). MACE was defined as all-cause mortality, Q-wave myocardial infarction, or target vessel revascularization. RESULTS: The rates of death, major bleeding, and length of hospital stay were significantly different between the ST and NC-PCI groups. The SVG-PCI group had a shorter hospital stay. The 30-day MACE rate was significantly different in the ST and NC-PCI groups (18.9% vs. 7.5%; risk ratio=0.40, 95% CI=0.20-0.81, p=0.03) but not in the ST and SVG-PCI groups (18.9% vs. 15.1%; p=0.55, risk ratio=0.80, 95% CI=0.38-1.68). There were no differences in the 1-year MACE rate. CONCLUSIONS: As compared to patients undergoing NC-PCI, patients with ST have greater rates of in-hospital mortality and major bleeding as well as 30-day MACE rate. The 1-year MACE rate is similar in patients with ST and SVG occlusion who undergo PCI.

BACKGROUND: A 68-year-old male smoker presented with progressive symptoms of vertebrobasilar insufficiency and angina. His past medical history included arterial hypertension, diabetes mellitus, dyslipidaemia as well as diffuse coronary artery disease including left main disease. Of note, he had undergone coronary bypass surgery 12 years earlier utilising the left internal mammary artery. INVESTIGATION: Physical examination, laboratory tests, duplex ultrasound imaging, contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging and coronary angiography. DIAGNOSIS: Severe bifurcation stenosis of the left subclavian and vertebral artery with consecutive subclavian steal syndrome and myocardial ischaemia. MANAGEMENT: Bifurcation T-stenting using a self-expandable bare metal and a coronary drug-eluting stent.

We describe a case of very late stent thrombosis with documentation of highly calcific restenosis at optical coherence tomography without clear signs of stent malapposition, neoatherosclerosis disruption, or vascular toxicity to stent polymer. To the best of our knowledge, this is one of the first reports dealing with highly calcific restenosis as a potential background to very late stent thrombosis.

A 71-year-old man presented in emergency department for non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction. At admission, 12-lead ECG was in sinus rhythm without sign of myocardial ischemia, and troponin slightly increased. The only notable feature of the patient's medical history was single-vessel coronary artery disease revealed 10 years previously, treated by stenting of the second segment of the right coronary artery with a 3.0 x 25âmm bare metal stent. Three months later, intrastent restenosis was managed by implantation of a 3.0â×â28âmm paclitaxel-eluting stent. Two years before the present admission, following a non contributive stress test for atypical chest pain, coronary angiogram had found a 60% diffuse intrastent restenosis. The present coronary angiogram performed via a right transradial approach demonstrated a focal intrastent restenosis (85%) with irregular contours. Optical coherence tomography (OCT) showed an atherosclerotic intrastent neolesion with intimal tear. OCT demonstrated more precisely a minimal luminal area of 1.02âmm (77.9% area stenosis), two wide cavities (length 1.1 and 1.4âmm) separated by a plaque rupture of 6.8âmm. Myocardial ischemia was evenly demonstrated on this artery with a fractional flow reserve under 0.50 after 150âmg intracoronary adenosine bolus. The culprit lesion was treated by a 3.0â×â38âmm everolimus-eluting stent, with good angiographic results, confirmed on OCT.

Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is associated with accelerated restenosis rates after angioplasty. We have previously proved that Pin1 played an important role in vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) cycle and apoptosis. But neither the role of Pin1 in restenosis by T2D, nor the molecular mechanism of Pin1 in these processes has been elucidated. A mouse model of T2D was generated by the combination of high-fat diet (HFD) and streptozotocin (STZ) injections. Both Immunohistochemistry and Western blot revealed that Pin1 expression was up-regulated in the arterial wall in T2D mice and in VSMCs in culture conditions mimicking T2D. Next, increased activity of Pin1 was observed in neointimal hyperplasia after arterial injury in T2D mice. Further analysis confirmed that 10% serum of T2D mice and Pin1-forced expression stimulated proliferation, inhibited apoptosis, enhanced cell cycle progression and migration of VSMCs, whereas Pin1 knockdown resulted in the converse effects. We demonstrated that STAT3 signalling and mitochondria-dependent pathways played critical roles in the involvement of Pin1 in cell cycle regulation and apoptosis of VSMCs in T2D. In addition, VEGF expression was stimulated by Pin1, which unveiled part of the mechanism of Pin1 in regulating VSMC migration in T2D. Finally, the administration of juglone via pluronic gel onto injured common femoral artery resulted in a significant inhibition of the neointima/media ratio. Our findings demonstrated the vital effect of Pin1 on the VSMC proliferation, cell cycle progression, apoptosis and migration that underlie neointima formation in T2D and implicated Pin1 as a potential therapeutic target to prevent restenosis in T2D.
