Abstract: The invention relates to a stent with in particular a coated basic body made of an implant material the use of lithium salts as a coating material or a component of an implant material for stents and the use of lithium salts in a method for restenosis prevention. The inventive stent having a basic body made of an implant material is characterized in that (i) the basic body has a coating which comprises or consists of a lithium salt, and/or (ii) the implant material is biocorrodible and the basic body contains a lithium salt.

Abstract: An implant, preferably a stent, which has a main body made of magnesium or a biocorrodible magnesium alloy and a corrosion-inhibiting passivation layer covering the main body. The passivation layer is characterized in that it contains a composite of a biodegradable polymer and nanoparticles of clay minerals.

Abstract: An implant comprising a main body made of magnesium or a biocorrodible magnesium alloy and a corrosion-inhibiting passivation layer covering the main body. The passivation layer is characterized in that it contains a 3-polyhydroxyalkanoate and the 3-polyhydroxyalkanoate is a homomer or copolymer with a polymer segment of formula (1): where R=propyl, butyl, pentyl or hexyl.

Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention relates to a medical product coated with a polymer layer, which comprises an inhibitor of the TRPC-3 ion channel underneath, in, and/or on the biostable or biodegradable polymer layer.

Abstract: An implant, in particular an intraluminal endoprosthesis, having an implant body (2, 4) containing an aluminum compound, preferably an aluminum alloy and/or aluminum oxide. Improved biocompatibility of the implant is achieved in that at least the part of the surface of the implant body (2, 4) which is formed by the aluminum compound has a first layer (6) which contains an aluminum phosphate. Furthermore, a cost-effective method for producing such an implant is described.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a medical product that can be implanted or introduced into a vascular system of a human or animal organism, having an active substance coating according to the invention on the surface of the medical product, to a method for the production of a medical product that can be implanted or introduced into a vascular system of a human or animal organism, having an active substance coating according to the invention, to an active substance coating according to the invention for a medical product that can be implanted or introduced into a vascular system of a human or animal organism, to uses of the active substance coating according to the invention for the production of a medical product that can be implanted or introduced into a vascular system of a human or animal organism, and to a method for treatment of a stenosis, etc., in the vascular system of a human or animal organism.

Abstract: The invention relates to an implant made of a biocorrodable metallic material and having a coating composed of or containing a biocorrodable polyphosphate, polyphosphonate, or polyphosphite.

Abstract: The invention relates to a stent having a coating or cavity filling comprising or containing an organic Au complex.

Abstract: The invention relates to a stent with in particular a coated basic body made of an implant material the use of lithium salts as a coating material or a component of an implant material for stents and the use of lithium salts in a method for restenosis prevention. The inventive stent having a basic body made of an implant material is characterized in that (i) the basic body has a coating which comprises or consists of a lithium salt, and/or (ii) the implant material is biocorrodible and the basic body contains a lithium salt.

Abstract: A stent of a metallic base body and with an SiO2-containing or silicate-containing coating or filling of a cavity.

Abstract: A stent of a metallic base body with a selenium-containing coating or filling of a cavity.

Abstract: A biodegradable metallic stent having improved stability properties after implantation of the stent, methods for producing such a stabilized stent, methods for improving the stabilization of a biodegradable metallic stent, and a method for improving the stability of a biodegradable metallic stent by using vasodilator active ingredients.

Abstract: An implant made of a biocorrodible metallic material having a coating made of an organosilicon compound.
