Recombinant Soluble P-Selectin Glycoprotein Ligand-1-Ig Reduces Restenosis Through Inhibition of Platelet-Neutrophil Adhesion After Double Angioplasty in Swine

Abstract

P-selectin antagonism with rPSGL-Ig inhibits early platelet/leukocyte adhesion on injured arteries and reduces restenosis through a positive impact on vascular remodeling. Hence, rPSGL-Ig may have potential in the prevention of restenosis.
