项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is the number one cause of mortality worldwide, leading to approximately 18 million deaths each year. Besides traditional risk factors, emerging data implicate certain prevalent infections as important contributors of ASCVD risk. We have shown that a globally-prevalent infection such as tuberculosis (TB) carries a 2-fold increased risk of developing ASCVD. Furthermore, TB survivors have a 3-fold increased risk of long-term all-cause mortality compared to the general population, with most deaths attributable to ASCVD. A considerable gap in knowledge is that the mechanisms driving the increased ASCVD risk after recovery from TB and similar chronic infections are unknown. Studies aimed to fill this gap are expected to result in a positive impact in our ability to design interventions to mitigate ASCVD risk after recovery from TB and other chronic infections. We will leverage proof-of-concept mouse experiments conducted by our group which showed that mycobacterial infection enhances inflammation and atherosclerosis development to further establish and characterize a mouse model of post-infection atherosclerosis. Thus, in Aim 1 we will establish the progression of atherosclerosis in mice after mycobacterial-infection clearance with standard antibiotics. In Aim 2, we will profile the activation and function of monocytes post-infection and their contribution to atherosclerosis, as monocytes are key players in atherosclerosis development and our preliminary data indicate that they remain primed after infection clearance. Successful accomplishment of the proposed research will allow the development of an essential mouse model providing a foundation to study mechanisms of post-infection atherosclerosis. We will use the proposed model and findings to support an R01 application aimed at deciphering post-infection progression of atherosclerosis and underlying immune mechanisms. Our results will have a broad translational science impact by providing a model to investigate mechanisms of ASCVD risk and other inflammation-driven diseases among survivors of post-treated chronic infections.

项目摘要动脉粥样硬化性心血管疾病（ASCVD）是全球死亡的头号原因，导致每年约有1800万人死亡。除了传统的风险因素外，新出现的数据还表明，流行感染是ASCVD风险的重要贡献者。我们已经证明，全球普遍存在的感染如结核病（TB）携带2倍增加的发展ASCVD的风险。此外，TB 与一般人群相比，幸存者的长期全因死亡风险增加了3倍，大多数死亡可归因于ASCVD。知识上的一个相当大的差距是，从结核病和类似慢性感染中恢复后ASCVD风险增加尚不清楚。研究旨在填补预计这一差距将对我们设计干预措施以减轻ASCVD风险的能力产生积极影响从结核病和其他慢性感染中康复后。我们将利用概念验证小鼠实验研究表明，分枝杆菌感染会增强炎症和动脉粥样硬化，开发以进一步建立和表征感染后动脉粥样硬化的小鼠模型。因此在目的1我们将建立小鼠在分枝杆菌感染清除后动脉粥样硬化的进展，标准抗生素在目标2中，我们将描述感染后单核细胞的活化和功能及其在感染后的变化。由于单核细胞是动脉粥样硬化发展的关键参与者，初步数据表明，它们在感染清除后仍保持着准备状态。成功完成拟议的研究将允许开发一个基本的小鼠模型，为研究提供基础。感染后动脉粥样硬化的机制。我们将使用所提出的模型和研究结果来支持R01 旨在解释动脉粥样硬化和潜在免疫的感染后进展的应用机制等我们的研究结果将通过提供一个模型来研究， ASCVD风险和其他炎症驱动的疾病的机制在治疗后的慢性感染.
