Adipocytokines in Atherothrombosis: Focus on Platelets and Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells by Giovanni Anfossi, Isabella Russo, Gabriella Doronzo, Alice Pomero, Mariella Trovati

“…In particular, increased synthesis and release of different cytokines, including interleukins and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and adipokines—such as leptin—have been reported as associated with future cardiovascular events. Since vascular cell dysfunction plays a major role in the atherothrombotic complications in central obesity, this paper aims at focusing, in particular, on the relationship between platelets and vascular smooth muscle cells, and the impaired secretory pattern of adipose tissue.…”
