Abstract
Inflammation and a dysregulated immune system are common denominators in cancer and cardiovascular disease (CVD). The Canakinumab Anti-Inflammatory Thrombosis Outcome Study (CANTOS) highlighted the convergence of interleukin (IL)-1β biology in cancer and CVD, and the potential of anti–IL-1β drugs for the treatment of both disease entities. Accumulating evidence further supports the role of the innate immunity members and IL-1β activators, S100A8/9 and the NLRP3 inflammasome, in both cancer and CVD. This review outlines the common involvement of S100A8/9 and the NLRP3 inflammasome, in cancer and CVD. Specifically, their time-, cell-, and context-dependent actions and hereto-related dichotomous role in different cancers and CVD are addressed, highlighting the need for further insights to allow tailored therapies.
期刊介绍:
JACC: CardioOncology is a specialized journal that belongs to the esteemed Journal of the American College of Cardiology (JACC) family. Its purpose is to enhance cardiovascular care for cancer patients by publishing high-quality, innovative scientific research and sharing evidence-based knowledge.
The journal aims to revolutionize the field of cardio-oncology and actively involve and educate professionals in both cardiovascular and oncology fields. It covers a wide range of topics including pre-clinical, translational, and clinical research, as well as best practices in cardio-oncology. Key areas of focus include understanding disease mechanisms, utilizing in vitro and in vivo models, exploring novel and traditional therapeutics (across Phase I-IV trials), studying epidemiology, employing precision medicine, and investigating primary and secondary prevention.
Amyloidosis, cardiovascular risk factors, heart failure, and vascular disease are some examples of the disease states that are of particular interest to the journal. However, it welcomes research on other relevant conditions as well.
