Markers of Basement Membrane Remodeling Are Associated With Higher Mortality in Patients With Known Atherosclerosis

Background Patients with atherosclerosis have a high risk of cardiovascular events and death. Atherosclerosis is characterized by accumulation of lipids, cells and extracellular matrix proteins in the intima. We hypothesized that dysregulated remodeling of the basement membrane proteins may be assoc...
