| Sumario: | Atherosclerosis (AS) is a systemic chronic disease affecting both the coronary and cerebral arteries. Inflammation plays a key role in the initiation and progression of AS, and numerous inflammatory factors have been proposed as potential biomarkers. This article reviews recent research in studies on major circulating inflammatory biomarkers to identify surrogates that may reflect processes associated with AS development and the risk of AS-related vascular events, such as Von Willebrand factor, lectin-like oxidized low-density-lipoprotein receptor-1, soluble urokinase plasminogen activator receptor, regulated upon activation, normal T-cell expressed and secreted, and microparticles, which may provide new perspectives for clinical AS evaluation and risk stratification. |
