Abstract:
Atherosclerosis(AS)is a chronic inflammatory disease of arteries,induced by the injury of endothelial cells,accumulation of mononuclear macrophage and lipid,proliferation of smooth muscle cells and the adhesion of platelets.As a frequent disease and a common pathology in cardiovascular system.In fact,the inciting event of AS is likely an inflammatory insult that occurs decades before the disease becomes clinically apparent.More and more cases were also reported in the childhood recently.Therefore it is important both for clinic and research to investigate the cause and pathogenesis of AS.J Appl Clin Pediatr,2009,24(1):58-60
