Carotid Artery Occlusion

Carotid Artery Occlusion, also known as occlusion and stenosis of carotid artery, is related to aphasia and transient cerebral ischemia. An important gene associated with Carotid Artery Occlusion is LDLR (Low Density Lipoprotein Receptor), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Signal Transduction and MIF Mediated Glucocorticoid Regulation. The drugs Acetylsalicylic acid and Clopidogrel have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include brain and cortex, and related phenotypes are homeostasis/metabolism and nervous system
