So, you want me to teach you the molecular biology of Atherosclerosis ,right ? Atherosclerosis is not a worrisome issue as long as it is contained deep within the vessel wall and doesn’t encroach the lumen. Atherosclerosis. 2011; 4 :810–813. Does statins increase Thickness of TCFA ? They are claimed in many studies.

The fundamental characteristic of atherosclerosis is when a cholesterol particle becomes trapped in the artery wall. It is the inflammatory response to this particle retention that causes the formation of atherosclerosis 1.
