Brief description Coronary heart disease due to hardening of the arteries, known as atherosclerosis, is a major health issue. The diagnosis and treatment for this disease are challenging because the atherosclerotic plaques are difficult to access in vivo. We developed reagents that can home specifically in plaques via the bloodstream. We will explore the use of these reagents to deliver imaging agents and drugs into plaques. This work will enhance diagnosis and treatment of atherosclerosis.
