fasudil and Atherosclerosis

fasudil has been researched along with Atherosclerosis in 4 studies

fasudil: intracellular calcium antagonist; structure in first source
fasudil : An isoquinoline substituted by a (1,4-diazepan-1-yl)sulfonyl group at position 5. It is a Rho-kinase inhibitor and its hydrochloride hydrate form is approved for the treatment of cerebral vasospasm and cerebral ischemia.

Atherosclerosis: A thickening and loss of elasticity of the walls of ARTERIES that occurs with formation of ATHEROSCLEROTIC PLAQUES within the ARTERIAL INTIMA.

"We evaluated the ratio of phospho myosin-binding subunit (p-MBS) on myosin light-chain phosphatase to total MBS in peripheral leukocytes by Western blot analysis and forearm blood flow (FBF) response to the ROCK inhibitor fasudil using strain-gauge plethysmography in 36 healthy subjects and 39 patients with cardiovascular diseases."3.77Measurement of Rho-associated kinase (ROCK) activity in humans: validity of leukocyte p-MBS/t-MBS in comparison with vascular response to fasudil.
