This research explores the role of invariant Natural Killer T-cells in the development of atherosclerosis, particularly in childhood disease survivors. By identifying lipid antigens associated with plaque formation, it aims to uncover potential therapeutic targets for managing cardiovascular health.
Many survivors of childhood chronic disease struggle with early atherosclerosis later in life.
As a physician-scientist I am inspired by their lifelong fight, and my research focuses on the etiology and treatment of early atherosclerosis.
Here, I aim to unravel the role of invariant Natural Killer T-cells (iNKTs) in atherogenesis. iNKTs are unique for their restriction to lipid antigens presented on CD1d molecules, which underlies their pivotal role in lipid-driven disorders such as atherosclero…
