Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
It is our pleasure to announce the launch of a new Special Issue in the IJMS journal focusing on lipids and cardiovascular disease. Despite advancements in the diagnosis and treatment of various stages of disease conditions, cardiovascular disease remains one of the most common leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. An imbalance of the lipid microenvironment crucially contributes to atherosclerosis and is the major risk factor of the underlying cardiovascular disease. Dyslipidemia can lead to the deposition of lipid in the arterial intima, leading to inflammation and vascular remodeling, resulting in atherosclerotic plaque formation. Myocardial infarction and stroke are the lethal consequences of plaque rupture or erosion. Research and review articles on this broad and important topic are highly encouraged.
