Evaluations of metabolic and innate immunity profiles in subjects with familial hypercholesterolemia with or without subclinical atherosclerosis
An increased LCB and an impaired innate immunity profile were found in FH subjects with subclinical atherosclerosis and they were independently associated with atherosclerotic injury. LCB could modulate the innate immunity profile.
