Macrophage anti-inflammatory behaviour in a multiphase model of atherosclerotic plaque development [PDF]
Bull Math Biol 85, 37 (2023), 2022 Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease characterised by the formation of plaques, which are deposits of lipids and cholesterol-laden macrophages that form in the artery wall. The inflammation is often non-resolving, due in large part to changes in normal macrophage anti-inflammatory behaviour that are induced by the toxic plaque microenvironment ...

HDL and plaque regression in a multiphase model of early atherosclerosis [PDF]
, 2023 Atherosclerotic plaques are accumulations of cholesterol-engorged macrophages in the artery wall. Plaque growth is initiated and sustained by the deposition of low density lipoproteins (LDL) in the artery wall. High density lipoproteins (HDL) counterbalance the effects of LDL by accepting cholesterol from macrophages and removing it from the plaque. In
