METHODS AND MATERIALS FOR REDUCING DEVELOPMENT OF STENOSIS OF ARTERIOVENOUS FISTULAS

摘要

This document provides methods and materials for reducing development of stenosis of arteriovenous fistulas. For example, methods and materials for reducing IEX-1 polypeptide expression or activity within a mammal (e.g., a human) to reduce venous neointimal hyperplasia and/or the development of stenosis of arteriovenous fistulas are provided.
