Abstract

Background and Aims : CVD is the leading cause of premature death in AS. EPCs that protect against atherosclerotic vascular damage are depleted in AS contributing to enhanced CV-risk. Therapeutic potential of augmenting EPCs to treat the heightened CV-risk of AS has not yet been explored. This study investigates the effect of rosuvastatin on EPC population, vascular endothelial dysfunction and inflammation (surrogates of atherosclerosis) in AS.
