- ItemNoninvasive Magnetic Resonance Imaging Evaluation of Endothelial Permeability in Murine Atherosclerosis Using an Albumin-Binding Contrast Agent(LIPPINCOTT WILLIAMS & WILKINS, 2012) Phinikaridou, Alkystis; Andia, Marcelo E.; Protti, Andrea; Indermuchle, Andreas; Shah, Ajay; Smith, Alberto; Warley, Alice; Botnar, Rene M.Backgound-Endothelial dysfunction promotes atherosclerosis and precedes acute cardiovascular events. We investigated wether in vivo magnetic resonance imaging with the use of an albumin-binding contrast agent, gadofosveset, could detect endothelial damage associated with atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E-deficient (ApoE(-/-)) mice. Furthermore, we tested whether magnetic resonance imaging could noninvasively assess endothelial function by measuring the endothelial-dependent vasolidation in response to acetycholine.
