The microcirculation: a motor for the systemic inflammatory response and large vessel disease induced by hypercholesterolaemia?

There is abundant evidence that links hypercholesterolaemia to both vascular inflammation and atherogenesis. While atherosclerosis is a large vessel disease that is characterized by leucocyte infiltration and lipid deposition in the wall of lesion-prone arteries, the inflammatory response does not a...
