The Aithors investigated a possible relationship between cytokine expression in circulating T lymphocyte and macroscopic characteristics of atherosclerotic plaque removed during carotid endarterectomy. The percentage of T lymphocytes primed for TNF-alfa, IFN-gamma, and IL-4 was higher in blood samples from patients than from healty subjects; it was also higher in patients with 'irregular' plaques (complicated lesions, more vulnerable to rupture9.
