Abstract

Macrophages in atherosclerotic plaques are activated, inflammatory cells that directly contribute to the disease process. De Nardo et al. (2013), now report that high density lipoproteins (HDL) can re-program macrophages to be less inflammatory through an ATF-3-dependent pathway, providing another mechanistic basis for the athero-protective properties of HDL.
