Description
Summary:Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases caused by atherosclerosis have a high disability rate and reduce the quality of life of the population. Therefore, understanding the mechanism of atherosclerosis and its control may interfere with the progression of atherosclerosis and thus control the occurrence of diseases closely related to atherosclerosis. TSP-1 is a factor that has been found to have an antiangiogenic effect, and CD47, as the receptor of TSP-1, can participate in the regulation of antiangiogenesis of atherosclerosis. VEGF is an important regulator of angiogenesis, and TSP-1/CD47 can cause VEGF and its downstream expression. Therefore, the TSP-1/CD47/VEGF/VEGFR2 signal may have an important influence on atherosclerosis. In addition, some inflammatory factors, such as IL-1 and NLRP3, can also affect atherosclerosis. This review will be expounded focusing on the pathogenesis and influencing factors of atherosclerosis.
