Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCardiovascular Risk Factors in North Indians: A Case-Control StudyVivek P. Singh, V. Ramesh, Sonal Somvanshi et al.There is no large study from North India which has addressed association of (CAD) in angiographically proven cases with lipid levels and the conventional risk factors. In the present study risk factor assessment was done in 200 consecutive patients admitted for coronary angiography and in 200 age and sex matched controls. We have found that the most important predictor of … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,051 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsResveratrol for Atherosclerosis: Potential MechanismsAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Sergey Kozlov, Gulalek A Babayeva et al.Cardiovascular disease is a big problem around the world. At the heart of most serious cardiovascular diseases is such a pathology as atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis is a complex set of interactions between inflammation, oxidative stress, lipid disorders, and other molecular, genetic, and lifestyle factors. It is this complexity and multicomponent nature of atherogenesis that make the treatment of atherosclerosis a non-trivial … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 11 Aug 2026 · 605 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the keywordsMicroRNAs in Atherosclerosis: Key Players, Diagnostic Potential, and Therapeutic OpportunitiesAnastasia V Poznyak, Stanislav Anatolievich Antonov, Ulyana V. Rozhkova et al.Atherosclerosis is a significant contributor to cardiovascular diseases, often progressing silently over many years before clinical symptoms manifest. The multifaceted pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, involving processes such as endothelial dysfunction and inflammation, presents challenges in early diagnosis and effective treatment. MicroRNAs (miRNAs), a class of non-coding RNA molecules with post-transcriptional gene regulation abilities, have emerged as potential key players in atherosclerosis … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 2 · 25 Jul 2026 · 740 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRole of HDL in Atherogenesis: Cholesterol and AtheroprotectionAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Vasily Nikolaevich Sukhorukov, Victor Yurievich Glanz et al.Atherosclerosis is a major global health burden, responsible for a significant proportion of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality worldwide. Its high prevalence and severe clinical consequences have made it a subject of extensive research. Despite considerable advances, the complexity of its pathogenesis continues to hinder the development of effective preventive strategies and therapeutic interventions. Current evidence implicates chronic inflammation, dysregulated lipid … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 3 Apr 2026 · 1,476 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordssuPAR as an Inflammatory and Preclinical Atherosclerotic Marker in Hypovitaminosis DShravan Ajith Panchwadkar, Sudha Kuthethur, Neelam Manjunath Pawar et al.The mechanistic link between inflammation and atherosclerosis highlights the critical role of immune modulation in cardiovascular disease. The soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor (suPAR), an immune-derived factor, has recently emerged as a non-specific inflammatory marker across chronic diseases and infections. All cells within the atherosclerotic arterial wall can express uPAR and release urokinase, which plays a key role in the … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 26, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2026 · 1,122 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Effect of Main Heat Shock Proteins on AtherosclerosisAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Alexey V. Churov et al.Atherosclerosis is a multifaceted disease characterized by complex pathogenesis involving diverse mechanisms. In recent years, the autoimmune nature of atherosclerosis has gained significant attention, emphasizing the indispensable role of the immune system in its initiation and progression. Heat Shock Proteins (HSPs) are vital for cellular functionality, facilitating cellular adaptation to environmental changes and survival under adverse conditions. Notably, various HSP … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 3 Oct 2024 · 4,354 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsVLDL in Atherosclerosis: Variety of Mechanistic ImplicationsAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Victor Yurievich Glanz, Vasily Nikolaevich Sukhorukov et al.Very-Low-Density Lipoprotein (VLDL) particles play a pivotal role as precursors for Intermediate-Density Lipoprotein (IDL) and eventually transform into Low-Density Lipoprotein (LDL). These particles have been categorized based on size and particle charge. Various types of VLDL impact diverse physiological processes in the human body. The accumulation of VLDL, along with other triglyceride-rich lipoproteins, significantly contributes to the development of atherosclerotic … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 29 Jul 2024 · 4,308 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the keywordsAtherosclerosis as Age-Related Disease: The Potential of Sirtuins TreatmentAnastasia Vladimirovna Poznyak, Victor Yurievich Glanz, Vasily Nikolaevich Sukhorukov et al.Atherosclerosis, a global health concern, has attracted researchers worldwide due to its severe consequences. The elderly are particularly susceptible to cardiovascular diseases and events, making them a high-risk group. Although gaps in our understanding of atherosclerosis pathogenesis persist, it is evident that oxidative stress, endothelial dysfunction, inflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction, and autophagy impairments are key components of its development. Remarkably, these … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 24, Issue 4 · 16 May 2024 · 4,717 accessesView PDFCite
