Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the arterial wall and the primary
underlying cause of cardiovascular disease. Data from in vivo imaging, cell-lineage tracing …

Immune responses participate in every phase of atherosclerosis. There is increasing
evidence that both adaptive and innate immunity tightly regulate atherogenesis. Although …

Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease that is initiated by the retention and
accumulation of cholesterol-containing lipoproteins, particularly low-density lipoprotein, in …

Atherosclerosis is a chronic disease of the arterial wall where both innate and adaptive
immunoinflammatory mechanisms are involved. Inflammation is central at all stages of …

Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease of the wall of large-and medium-sized arteries
that is precipitated by elevated levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol in the …

Atherosclerosis, the cause of myocardial infarction, stroke, and ischemic gangrene, is an
inflammatory disease. The atherosclerotic process is initiated when cholesterol-containing …

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of mortality worldwide, accounting for
16.7 million deaths each year. The underlying cause of the majority of CVD is …

▪ Abstract Natural killer T (NKT) cells constitute a conserved T cell sublineage with unique
properties, including reactivity for a synthetic glycolipid presented by CD1d, expression of an …

Natural killer T (NKT) cells combine features of the innate and adaptive immune systems.
Recently, it has become evident that these T cells have crucial roles in the response to …

Chronic inflammation in response to lipoprotein accumulation in the arterial wall is central in
the development of atherosclerosis. Both innate and adaptive immunity are involved in this …
