Intraplaque angiogenesis increases the chance of unstable atherosclerotic plaque rupture and thrombus formation leading to myocardial infarction. Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor (bFGF) plays a key role in angiogenesis and inflammation and is involved in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Therefore, we aim to test K5, a small molecule bFGF-inhibitor, on remodelling of accelerated atherosclerotic vein grafts lesions in ApoE3*Leiden mice. K5-mediated bFGF-signalling blockade strongly decreased intraplaque angiogenesis and intrap
