Includes bibliographical references (leaves 100-111). This study examines the histopathological response to injury following both balloon angioplasty and endovascular stenting in the Zucker rat, a model that allows interpretation of the role of obesity as well as progressive glucose intolerance and hyperinsulimaemia. Lean and obese Zucker fatty rats and Zucker diabetic fatty rat (ZDF) were subjected to balloon injury with or without stenting. The development of IH, along with the histological response to injury was analyzed. 2014-07-28T08:24:32Z 2014-07-28T08:24:32Z 2009 Master Thesis Masters MSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/2775 eng application/pdf Division of Cardiology Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town |
