What is Damås Et Al Expression of Fractalkine (cx3cl1) and Its Receptor cx3cr1 Is Elevated in Coronary Artery Disease and Is about?

The study investigates the elevated expression of fractalkine (CX3CL1) and its receptor CX3CR1 in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), particularly noting significant increases in unstable angina cases. Statin therapy, especially aggressive treatment with atorvastatin, was found to reduce the levels of both CX3CL1 and CX3CR1, which correlated with decreased leukocyte responses. The findings suggest that the CX3CL1/CX3CR1 axis may play a role in atherogenesis and that statin therapy could mitigate th
