99mTc-labeled bevacizumab for detecting atherosclerotic plaque linked to plaque neovascularization and monitoring antiangiogenic effects of atorvastatin treatment in ApoE−/− mice
Abstract Atherosclerotic neovascularization plays a significant role in plaque instability as it provides additional lipids and inflammatory mediators to lesions, and resulting in intraplaque hemorrhage. Vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) is considered the predominant proangiogenic factor...
