Abstract
Atherosclerosis (AS) is characterized by lipid deposition and the formation of arterial intimal plaques,which can lead to serious cardiovascular events such as acute coronary syndrome,myocardial infarction,or stroke.It is one of the leading causes of mortality among Chinese residents.Recent studies have demonstrated that porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide activates the inflammatory pathway through binding to Toll-like receptors,thereby stimulating the expression of inflammatory mediators.This process induces functional impairments in macrophages and endothelial cells,promotes foam cell formation,and consequently accelerates the progression of AS.This article reviews the latest research progress in the roles and mechanisms of porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide in AS and explores its potential value as a clinical therapeutic target,aiming to provide new insights for the prevention and treatment of AS.
期刊介绍:
Acta Academiae Medicinae Sinicae was founded in February 1979. It is a comprehensive medical academic journal published in China and abroad, supervised by the Ministry of Health of the People's Republic of China and sponsored by the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences and Peking Union Medical College.
The journal mainly reports the latest research results, work progress and dynamics in the fields of basic medicine, clinical medicine, pharmacy, preventive medicine, biomedicine, medical teaching and research, aiming to promote the exchange of medical information and improve the academic level of medicine. At present, the journal has been included in 10 famous foreign retrieval systems and their databases [Medline (PubMed online version), Elsevier, EMBASE, CA, WPRIM, ExtraMED, IC, JST, UPD and EBSCO-ASP]; and has been included in important domestic retrieval systems and databases [China Science Citation Database (Documentation and Information Center of the Chinese Academy of Sciences), China Core Journals Overview (Peking University Library), China Science and Technology Paper Statistical Source Database (China Science and Technology Core Journals) (China Institute of Scientific and Technological Information), China Science and Technology Journal Paper and Citation Database (China Institute of Scientific and Technological Information)].
