The present invention relates to methods and compositions for the treatment and diagnosis of cardiovascular disease, including, but not limited to, atherosclerosis, ischemia/reperfusion, hypertension, restenosis, and arterial inflammation. Specifically, the present invention identifies and describes genes which are differentially expressed in cardiovascular disease states, relative to their expression in normal, or non-cardiovascular disease states, and/or in response to manipulations relevant to cardiovascular disease. Further, the present invention identifies and describes genes via the ability of their gene products to interact with gene products involved in cardiovascular disease. Still further, the present invention provides methods for the identification and therapeutic use of compounds as treatments of cardiovascular disease. Moreover, the present invention provides methods for the diagnostic monitoring of patients undergoing clinical evaluation for the treatment of cardiovascular disease, and for monitoring the efficicacy of compounds in clinical trials. Additionally, the present invention describes methods for the diagnostic evaluation and prognosis of various cardiovascular diseases, and for the identification of subjects exhibiting a predisposition to such conditions.

La présente invention concerne des procédés et des compositions de traitement et de diagnostic des maladies cardiovasculaires, y compris, de manière non exhaustive, l'athérosclérose, l'ischémie/reperfusion, l'hypertension, la resténose et l'inflammation artérielle. La présente invention permet, en particulier, d'identifier et de décrire les gènes qui s'expriment de manière différentielle dans les maladies cardiovasculaires par rapport à leur expression dans les états normaux, sans pathologie cardiovasculaire, et/ou en réponse à des manipulations liées aux maladies cardiovasculaires. La présente invention permet en outre d'identifier et de décrire les gènes via la capacité de leurs produits géniques à interagir avec les produits géniques impliqués dans les maladies cardiovasculaires. L'invention se rapporte à des procédés d'identification et d'utilisation thérapeutique de composés destinés au traitement des maladies cardiovasculaires, à des procédés de surveillance diagnostique de patients devant être soumis à une évaluation clinique en vue de leur traitement pour une maladie cardiovasculaire, et à des procédés permettant de contrôler l'efficacité des composés dans le cadre d'essais cliniques. L'invention concerne enfin des procédés d'évaluation diagnostique et de pronostic de différentes maladies cardiovasculaires, et des procédés permettant d'identifier les sujets prédisposés à l'apparition de ce type de maladies.
