Overview
Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory process that occurs within the artery wall, causing the middle layer of the artery to gradually thicken, harden, and form plaque. These plaques are mostly made up of fat, cholesterol, and other cellular components that accumulate inside the artery walls and can eventually lead to narrowing of blood vessels and blocked blood flow. Human Bone, Tibia Proximal Total RNA, Donor 1250 is extracted from normal bone, tibia proximal tissue of a single atherosclerosis human donor using a classical guanidine isothiocyanate-phenol: chloroform extraction method. RNA goes through rigorous quality control procedures to ensure the highest quality possible.
