Abstract
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is an inflammatory disease caused by atherosclerosis. It has been demonstrated that PAD is related to chronic inflammation. While conventional risk factors lead to the pathogenesis and progression of PAD, the role of novel inflammatory biomarkers in relation to PAD is being increasingly recognized. The novel biomarkers for PAD may allow for earlier screening and detection, suppression of disease progression, and development of new therapeutic approaches. In this review, inflammatory biomarkers that should be contributory to diagnosis, prognosis, and avenues for therapeutic challenges in PAD are summarized.
Keywords: Biomarker, diagnosis, peripheral artery disease, prognosis, therapy.

Chalcogen-modified nucleic acid analogues
Chalcogen-modified nucleosides, nucleotides and oligonucleotides have been of great interest to scientific research for many years. The replacement of oxygen in the nucleobase, sugar or phosphate backbone by chalcogen atoms (sulfur, selenium, tellurium) gives these biomolecules unique properties resulting from their altered physical and chemical properties. The continuing interest in ...read more
