Haemodynamic forces influence the functional properties of vascular endothelium.
Endothelial cells (ECs) have a variety of receptors, which sense flow and transmit …

Formation of foam cells is a hallmark at the initial stages of atherosclerosis. Monocytes
attracted by pro‐inflammatory stimuli attach to the inflamed vascular endothelium and …

In atherosclerosis, the accumulation of apolipoprotein B-lipoproteins in the matrix beneath
the endothelial cell layer of blood vessels leads to the recruitment of monocytes, the cells of …

At least 468 individual genes have been manipulated by molecular methods to study their
effects on the initiation, promotion, and progression of atherosclerosis. Most clinicians and …

Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory process of the vascular wall characterized by the
infiltration of lipids and inflammatory cells. Oxidative modifications of infiltrating low-density …

Vascular inflammation is associated with and in large part driven by changes in the
leukocyte compartment of the vessel wall. Here, we focus on monocyte influx during …

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 …

Chronic inflammation drives the development of atherosclerosis, and details regarding the
involvement of different leukocyte subpopulations in the pathology of this disease have …

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 …

Atherosclerosis is a chronic immune-inflammatory disease in which the interactions of
monocytes with activated endothelium are crucial events leading to atherosclerotic alteration …
