Abstract
Dysregulation of immune homeostasis can precipitate chronic inflammation, thus significantly contributing to the onset and progression of metabolic and cardiovascular diseases. Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) constitute a heterogeneous population of immature myeloid cells that are mobilized in response to biological stressors such as tissue damage and inflammation. Although MDSCs have been extensively characterized in the contexts of cancer and infectious diseases, emerging evidence highlights their pivotal roles in the pathophysiology of metabolic and cardiovascular disorders. We discuss growing evidence for the involvement of MDSCs in the progression of metabolic and cardiovascular diseases, with the aim of deepening our understanding of MDSCs in cardiometabolic physiology and identifying the necessary steps for the development of innovative MDSC-targeted therapeutic strategies.
期刊介绍:
Trends in Endocrinology and Metabolism (TEM) stands as a premier Reviews journal in the realms of metabolism and endocrinology. Our commitment is reflected in the publication of refined, concise, and highly impactful articles that delve into cutting-edge topics, encompassing basic, translational, and clinical aspects. From state-of-the-art treatments for endocrine diseases to groundbreaking developments in molecular biology, TEM provides comprehensive coverage.
Explore recent advancements in diabetes, endocrine diseases, obesity, neuroendocrinology, immunometabolism, molecular and cellular biology, and a myriad of other areas through our journal.
TEM serves as an invaluable resource for researchers, clinicians, lecturers, teachers, and students. Each monthly issue is anchored by Reviews and Opinion articles, with Reviews meticulously chronicling recent and significant developments, often contributed by leading researchers in specific fields. Opinion articles foster debate and hypotheses. Our shorter pieces include Science & Society, shedding light on issues at the intersection of science, society, and policy; Spotlights, which focus on exciting recent developments in the literature, and single-point hypotheses as Forum articles. We wholeheartedly welcome and encourage responses to previously published TEM content in the form of Letters.
