摘要

Recently, the incidence rate and mortality of various acute or chronic vascular occlusive diseases have increased yearly. As one of the most effective measures to treat them, vascular stents have been widely studied by researchers, and presently, the most commonly used is a drug-eluting stent, which reduces the process of rapid endothelialization because the drug is not selective. Fortunately, with the discovery and exploration of micro–nanostructures that can regulate cells selectively, reducing the incidence of "intravascular restenosis" and achieving rapid endothelialization simultaneously are possible through a special structure that cannot only improve endothelial cells (ECs), but also inhibit smooth muscle cells (SMCs). Therefore, this paper mainly introduces the preparation methods of micro–nanostructures used in the past, as well as the detection methods of EC and SMC. Then, the various functions of different dimensional structures for different cells are summarized and analyzed. Finally, the application of micro–nanostructure in future stent materials is summarized and proposed.
