Macrophage ATP citrate lyase deficiency stabilizes atherosclerotic plaques
Macrophages represent a major immune cell population in atherosclerotic plaques and play central role in the progression of this lipid-driven chronic inflammatory disease. Targeting immunometabolism is proposed as a strategy to revert aberrant macrophage
