Effect of Novel Polymer-Free Nitrogen-Doped Titanium Dioxide Film–Coated Coronary Stent Loaded With Mycophenolic Acid

Effect of Novel Polymer-Free Nitrogen-Doped Titanium Dioxide Film–Coated Coronary Stent Loaded With Mycophenolic Acid

Background: Titanium is commonly used in blood-exposed medical devices because it has superior blood compatibility. Mycophenolic acid inhibits the proliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells. This study examined the effect of a non-polymer TiO2 thin film–coated stent with mycophenolic acid in a po...
