Phosphatase and tensin homolog deleted on chromosome ten (PTEN) has been recognized as a promoter of apoptosis in various tissues, and revealed to be up-regulated in circumstances of coronary microembolization (CME). However, whether this functional protein could be modified by pretreatment of atorvastatin in models of CME has not been disclosed yet.
