Published in Blood Weekly, February 10th, 2000

Researchers from the United States have developed a genetically engineered blood vessel that is resistant to oxidative stress.

The researchers examined the effects of oxidative stress upon the process of restenosis through the creation of a genetically engineered vessel segment that overexpresses human copper/zinc superoxide dismutase.
