Atheroimmunology
To mark the 20th anniversary of Nature Reviews Cardiology, we bring together a Focus issue on atheroimmunology, highlighting the importance and our growing understanding of the contribution of innate and adaptive immune mechanisms to the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. The Focus features five Review articles discussing various aspects of atheroimmunology, including the roles of the complement system and efferocytosis, the link between autoimmune disease and atherosclerosis, and potential therapeutic strategies using specialized pro-resolving mediators or targeting immune cell recruitment in atherosclerosis.
