Intra-plaque calcium and its relation with the progression of carotid atheromatous disease
CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that a higher content of Ca confers greater stability against the progression of carotid AD and, eventually, its ability to generate symptomatology.PMID:35583455 | DOI:10.23736/S0392-9590.22.04872-6

Association between Fok1 and TaqI polymorphisms of vitamin D receptor gene with the severity of stenosis and calcification in carotid bulb in patients with ischemic stroke
CONCLUSIONS: There may be a biological association between the FokI VDR gene and carotid bulb calcification.PMID:35091316 | DOI:10.1016/j.jocn.2022.01.009

Weak UVB Irradiation Promotes Macrophage M2 Polarization and Stabilizes Atherosclerosis
AbstractAtherosclerosis (AS) is a chronic cardiovascular disease endangering human health and is one of the most common causes of myocardial infarction and stroke. Macrophage polarization plays a vital role in regulating plaque stability. As an important component of sunlight, ultraviolet B (UVB) has been proven to promote vitamin D and nitric oxide synthesis. This research used an AS model in ApoE−/− mice to study the effects of UVB on macrophage polarization and atherosclerotic plaque stability. In vitro, UVB irradiation increased arginase-I (Arg-I, M2 macrophage) and macrophage mannose receptor (CD206) expression, w...
