Role of interleukin-18 in destabilization of the atherosclerotic plaque in humans.

Abstract:

:Precise location of IL-18 in cell and tissue elements of the atherosclerotic lesions in humans and its role in destabilization of the atherosclerotic plaque were detected. The data suggested a hypothesis on indirect involvement of IL-18 in destruction of the elastic and collagen fibers in an unstable plaque due to this cytokine capacity to induce the production of IFN-γ in T cells and macrophages, this eventually leading to inhibition of collagen and elastin synthesis in smooth muscle cells of the vascular wall and to loosening of the plaque cap.
