Atherosclerosis is a form of chronic inflammation associated with the secretion of many cytokines, which are produced by T cells, macrophages, endothelial cells, and smooth muscle cells. Smooth muscle cells in particular produce cytokines that attract and activate leukocytes, induce proliferation of SMCs, promote endothelial cell dysfunction, and stimulate production of extracellular matrix components.
