Increased Expression of Visfatin in Monocytes and Macrophages in Male Acute Myocardial Infarction Patients
We demonstrated that visfatin expressed in monocytes and neutrophils and increased their reactivity in male acute ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction patients. Furthermore, visfatin was strongly appeared in lipid rich coronary rupture plaques and macrophages. These results suggest another exp...
