Abstract:
Some immune responses induced by atherosclerosis may aggravate the state of the illness by inducing persistent arterial inflammation, whereas others may inhibit arterial inflammation and atherosclerosis.Thus, the prevention and treatment of atherosclerosis may be achieved by the method of immunomodulation, by which selectively suppress proatherogenic immune responses or activate antiatherogenic ones.
