Evidence from human and animal studies has demonstrated elevated levels of the cysteine protease cathepsin S (CatS) in hypoxic atherosclerotic lesions. We hypothesized that silencing of CatS gene would suppress ischemia-induced angiogenic action. Left femoral artery ligation-induced ischemia in mice
