Peripheral Artery Disease

Peripheral Artery Disease, also known as peripheral arterial diseases, is related to intermittent claudication and limb ischemia, and has symptoms including angina pectoris, chest pain and edema. An important gene associated with Peripheral Artery Disease is CDKN2B-AS1 (CDKN2B Antisense RNA 1), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Regulation of Insulin-like Growth Factor (IGF) transport and uptake by Insulin-like Growth Factor Binding Proteins (IGFBPs) and miRNA role in immune response in sepsis. The drugs Paclitaxel and Glucagon have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include bone marrow and heart, and related phenotypes are renal/urinary system and liver/biliary system
