Despite recent advances in pharmacologic therapy of heart failure, mortality remains high. There is growing evidence that thromboembolic events may contribute to these events. There is evidence for platelet activation, hypercoagulability and endothelial dysfunction in heart failure. The incidence of
The proteoglycan decorin inhibits TGF-beta; therefore, it could antagonize progression of fibrotic diseases associated with activation of TGF-beta(1). The effect of decorin transfection in human mesangial cells (HMCs) on the expression of genes related to kidney fibrosis was investigated. HMCs, isol
