Coronary stent CD31-mimetic coating favours endothelialization and reduces local inflammation and neointimal development in vivo

ConclusionCD31-mimetic coating favours vascular homeostasis and arterial wall healing, preventing in-stent stenosis and thrombosis. Hence, such coatings seem to improve the metal stent biocompatibility.
