Monitoring Therapeutical Intervention with Ezetimibe Using Targeted Near-Infrared Fluorescence Imaging in Experimental Atherosclerosis
Ezetimibe (EZE), an inhibitor of cholesterol absorption, reduces atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E–deficient (apo –/– ) mice. The matrix protein ED-B fibronectin (ED-B) is upregulated in atherosclerotic lesions. Using a novel conjugate for near-infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging targeting ED-B,...
