Key Enzyme Identified That Can Reduce Heart Disease

by Kendra James, RN on October 29th, 2007

Virginia Commonwealth University researchers have identified the role of a key enzyme called CEH in reducing heart disease, paving the way for new target therapies to reduce plaques in the arteries and perhaps in the future, help predict a patient’s susceptibility to heart disease.

So another words, we can actually reduce existing plaques and not just prevent new ones. Very exciting! The researchers are now looking into how to increase that activity of CEH in order to help further reduce heart disease.
