摘要

Recent findings regarding the interaction of inflammatory cells, lipids, mediators of calcification, and renin-angiotensin system in stenotic valves support the current opinion of aortic valve stenosis being an actively regulated disease, potentially amenable to targeted molecular therapy. Evidence from prospective clinical studies is eagerly awaited.
