Inflammation and Endothelial Dysfunction in Cardio-Cerebrovascular Disease

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, the role of inflammation and endothelial dysfunction has been central to the understanding and treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. The endothelium is an organ that responds in different ways to the stimuli it receives in order to maintain the correct homeostasis. However, the inflammatory microenvironment creates the conditions for the development of endothelial dysfunction, which then leads to cardio and cerebrovascular events. There has been an increasing number of discoveries in this area, considering the progressive development of innovative methods for the evaluation of endothelial dysfunction and for the study of inflammation.

This Special Issue will cover a selection of papers in the field of inflammation and endothelial dysfunction in cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Authors are welcome to contribute original research articles, current review articles and commentaries.
