Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Despite recent progress in treatment of atherosclerosis related to lipid-lowering therapies still we are very far from being able to completely eliminate or prevent this pathological condition. The main reason of this problem is the lack of complete understanding of all pathological changes happening upon atherosclerosis development which makes almost impossible the creation of new effective drugs. It should be mentioned also that chronic inflammation is believed to be one of the main contributing factors for the development of plethora of diseases starting from atherosclerosis, cancer, rheumatoid arthritis and ending with inevitable aging process.
The Special Issue will be dedicated to the role of immune cells in the development of atherosclerosis and other non-infectious inflammatory diseases. The aim of this Special Issue is to try to take a new look at the inflammatory component of atherosclerosis development including the comparison of the role of immune cells in inflammation in atherosclerosis and in other non-infectious inflammatory diseases with the ultimate goal to find general principles and targets for therapy and drug creation.
All studies devoted to the role of immunity-related cells (such as macrophages, T- and B- cells etc.) in pathological mechanisms non-infectious inflammatory diseases development will be welcome for the submission.
