Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM) is a major cardiovascular risk factor that induces monocyte dysfunction and contributes to their accumulation in atherosclerotic lesions. Monocyte recruitment and accumulation in the tissues contribute to chronic inflammation and are essential to the pathobiology…
Monocytes play a vital role in the development of cardiovascular diseases. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a major CVD risk factor, and T2DM-induced aberrant activation and enhanced migration of monocytes is a vital pathomechanism that leads to atherogenesis. We recently reported the upregulation…
