Inflammation and autoimmunity in atherosclerosis
Atherosclerosis is a process whose onset can be observed even in the foetal period. A number of risk factors, such as hyperlipidaemia, hyperhomocysteinaemia, arterial hypertension, hyperuricaemia, smoking, metabolic syndrome, hypertriglyceridaemia, and ...

Dysfunctional HDL and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease [PDF]
High-density lipoproteins (HDLs) protect against atherosclerosis by removing excess cholesterol from macrophages through the ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) and ATP-binding cassette transporter G1 (ABCG1) pathways involved in reverse cholesterol transport.

RANTES/CCL5 and risk for coronary events: results from the MONICA/KORA Augsburg case-cohort, Athero-Express and CARDIoGRAM studies. [PDF]
The chemokine RANTES (regulated on activation, normal T-cell expressed and secreted)/CCL5 is involved in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease in mice, whereas less is known in humans. We hypothesised that its relevance for atherosclerosis should be

Superfamily II helicases: the potential therapeutic target for cardiovascular diseases
Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) still maintain high morbidity and mortality globally. Helicases, a unique class of enzymes, are extensively implicated in the processes of nucleic acid (NA) metabolism across various organisms.
