Reprogramming Human Inflammatory Macrophages in Symptomatic Carotid Stenosis: Potential Mechanisms for Stabilisation of Atherosclerotic Carotid Plaques
2024-06-13
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Inflammation is a precursor to atherosclerotic plaque destabilisation, leading to ischaemic events such as stroke. Macrophage phenotypes can be altered by the microenvironment, and certain anti-inflammatory agents may, therefore, stabilise plaques and reduce the risk of recurrent ischaemic events. <h4>Methods</h4> Thirteen carotid plaques were obtained from stroke/ Transient Ischaemic Attack...
