    Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; IL-25; B cells; ILC2s; IL-5; anti-PC IgM; atherosclerosis; stroke; cardiovascular events;

    Sammanfattning : Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease of medium and large vessels of the body which is mainly characterized by the formation of lipid rich plaques within the arterial tissue. It is the most common cause of cardiovascular disease leading to clinical manifestations of coronary artery and cerebrovascular disease. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Natural antibodies against phosphorylcholine as potential protective factors in atherosclerosis, cardiovascular disease and systemic lupus erythematosus

    Författare :Jun Su; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Atherosclerosis is the most important contributor to cardiovascular disease (CVD). Although it was initially considered as a bland lipid storage disease, processes of inflammation and autoimmunity are now considered to play a major role in atherosclerosis. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Anti-phosphorylcholine antibodies in cardiovascular disease

    Författare :Roland Fiskesund; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the industrialized countries and a growing concern for the developing world. The underlying cause of almost all CVD is atherosclerosis, a process that is characterized by a low-grade inflammation in the artery walls. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Lipids and autoimmunity in atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases

    Författare :Xiang Hua; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease. The rupture of athrerosclerotic plaques is the major cause of severe cardiovascular disease (CVD), such as myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke. The stability of the plaque depends on its cellular and extracellular contents. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Studies of atherosclerosis in systemic lupus erythematosus

    Författare :Cristina Anania; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : The role of inflammation in the development of atherosclerosis is now accepted and a focus of many studies because of its complex mechanisms. The risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and atherosclerosis is reported to be increased in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), especially in the group of young women. LÄS MER
