FOCUS ON SYMPATHETIC DENERVATION
Long-term stimulation of sympathetic activity has been linked to the pathophysiology of chronic diseases such as systemic hypertension, metabolic syndrome, sleep apnea, heart failure, liver cirrhosis and rheumatoid arthritis. Thus, reduction of sympathetic nerve activity via local nerve ablation has emerged as an attractive therapy for hypertension and other chronic diseases. As a result, the […]
FOCUS ON PERIPHERAL ARTERY DISEASE (PAD)
In Europe and North America, an estimated 27 million individuals are affected with peripheral artery disease (PAD), which is caused by the accumulation of plaque in peripheral arteries (commonly the pelvis or leg) reducing blood flow. Left untreated, PAD can lead to severe pain, immobility, non-healing wounds and eventually limb amputation. With risk factors such […]

Endovascular Today: CBSET Preclinical Study Shows Balloon-Based Drug Delivery Is Critically Dependent on Coating Micromorphology
September 30, 2020—CBSET Inc., a not-for-profit translational research institute, announced the publication of a preclinical study, “Balloon-based drug coating delivery to the artery wall is dictated by coating micro-morphology and angioplasty pressure gradients,” by Abraham R. Tzafriri, PhD, et al, online ahead of print in the Journal of Biomaterials.
Press Release: Preclinical studies reveal balloon-based drug delivery to be critically dependent on coating micro-morphology, suggesting a paradigm for accelerated treatment optimization
“These preclinical studies transform our understanding of how drug coated balloons deliver drug to the artery and why there is no class effect, while also providing tools for understanding the role of tissue stiffening with disease. The combination of mechanistic insight with predictive modeling can help accelerate development of new technologies such as those including […]
