Pablo Corral: Atherosclerosis Is NOT an Inflammatory Disease

Pablo Corral, Pharmacology Professor at FASTA University, Past President of Argentine Lipid Society, shared on LinkedIn:

“Atherosclerosis IS NOT an inflammatory disease

  • Tuberculosis is not an inflammatory disease. It’s an infectious disease
  • HIV is not an inflammatory disease. It’s an infectious disease
  • Rheumatoid arthritis is an inflammatory disease.
  • Systemic lupus erythematosus is an inflammatory disease.

 Atherosclerosis?
It has a strong inflammatory component — no doubt.
But fundamentally, it is a disease of retention and deposition.

Let’s stop confusing the mechanisms involved with the disease itself.”
