NLRP3 inflammasome pathways in atherosclerosis.
Atherosclerosis is the major cause of death and disability. Atherosclerotic plaques are characterized by a chronic sterile inflammation in the large blood vessels, where lipid-derived and damage-associated molecular patterns...

The CANTOS Trial
The results of the CANTOS trial provide exciting evidence in support of the inflammatory hypothesis of atherosclerosis in humans, and is the first phase III clinical trial to show clinical benefit of a targeted anti-inflammatory...

PET Imaging of Post-infarct Myocardial Inflammation
Abstract: Purpose of Review: To examine the use of positron emission tomography (PET) for imaging post-infarct myocardial inflammation and repair. Recent Findings: Dysregulated immune responses after myocardial infarction are...

Plan B (-cell) in atherosclerosis.
Atherosclerosis is a leading cause of death worldwide. It is a complex chronic inflammatory disease involving interactions between vascular, circulating and immune cells. B cells play an important role in chronic inflammation...

Monocytes and macrophages in abdominal aortic aneurysm.
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a life-threatening disease associated with high morbidity, and high mortality in the event of aortic rupture. Major advances in open surgical and endovascular repair of AAA have been achieved...

Vascular smooth muscle cells in atherosclerosis.
Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are a major cell type present at all stages of an atherosclerotic plaque. According to the 'response to injury' and 'vulnerable plaque' hypotheses, contractile VSMCs recruited from the media...

Micro-RNAs in abdominal aortic aneurysms
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a major health concern and may be associated with high rates of mortality linked to acute complications. Diagnosis and treatment are, respectively, based on imaging and surgical techniques....

2019 ATVB Plenary Lecture: Interleukin-2 Therapy in Cardiovascular Disease
Regulatory T cells and type-2 innate lymphoid cells represent 2 subsets of immune cells, which have been shown in preclinical models to be important in atherosclerosis and myocardial repair. Regulatory T cells play a crucial...
