❓Why does #fibrin still appear on the #endothelium of contemporary DES? ❓Why does #restenosis happen on #BMS which are considered benchmarks on re-endothelialization? ⚠️ Because re-endothelialization is not the same thing as #healing. The endothelium that grows on top of a foreign body is not the endothelium your patient was born with. It looks the part. It does not behave the part. Our hypothesis (and our data): if the surface of your implant can "#bluff" platelets in the first 100 milliseconds, giving them the same molecular "#LeaveMeAlone" signal that a healthy endothelium normally sends them, then none of this cascade happens: the artery stops treating your device as foreign. No drug. No suppression. Recognition.
