Increased in-stent stenosis in ApoE knockout mice: insights from a novel mouse model of balloon angioplasty and stenting.

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to develop and validate a model of angioplasty and stenting in mice that would allow investigation of the response to stent injury using genetically modified mouse strains. METHODS AND RESULTS: Aortic segments from either C57BL/6 wild-type or atherosclerotic ApoE-KO mice underwe...
