Macrophage death in atherosclerosis: potential role in calcification

The effect of hypoxia on macrophage proteoglycans: potential role in atherosclerosis

Macrophage functions in atherosclerosis.

A therosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the arterial wall instigated by the excessive accumulation of lipoproteins; monocyte recruitment and their differentiation into macrophages in the subendothelial space. Repeated failure of innate immune responses to clear subintimal low-density lipoprotein (LDL), results in the deposition of lipid-laden macrophages or foam cells. Foam cells ...

role of cultural iran in promotion of multilaieralism in central asia and caucasus

cultural iran is a scope that is more extended than the political territories of iran as a political unit. this concept means that cultural geography(mehdi moghanlo-1383-1) of iran is greater than its political geography which, according to history, has a long history extending west-east from kandahar to the euphrates and north-south from the persian gulf to the caucasus including transoxiana a...

Macrophage Autophagy in Atherosclerosis

Macrophages play crucial roles in atherosclerotic immune responses. Recent investigation into macrophage autophagy (AP) in atherosclerosis has demonstrated a novel pathway through which these cells contribute to vascular inflammation. AP is a cellular catabolic process involving the delivery of cytoplasmic contents to the lysosomal machinery for ultimate degradation and recycling. Basal levels ...
