摘要

Over the past years, our understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the atherogenic immune response, including the recruitment of leukocytes, improved substantially. The plasticity of lesional smooth muscle cells, the interplay of cell types with a great functional variability, and the cell-specific effects of potent molecular cascades in atherogenesis are increasingly realized and provide new avenues for treatment and prevention of this devastating disease. The CD40-CD40 ligand (L) co-stimulatory pathway, for instance, directs multiple functions of immune cells, platelets, and vascular cells crucial to atherogenesis and, thus, is a central regulatory dyad of the inflammatory response. However, blockade of total GD40L activity appears therapeutically impractical due to the profound alteration of the general immune system and prothrombotic side-effects.
