Abstract

Acidic and basic FGF are expressed in early, simple and advanced atherosclerotic plaques. This suggests that in vivo these growth factors may have a role in the genesis of this disease. Basic FGF and FGFR-1 may potentially be involved in plaque neovascularisation. Such FGF driven angiogenic events may be central to the life threatening complications of atheroma and provide new options for therapeutic intervention.
