Advances in biological therapies for dyslipidemias and atherosclerosis
2021, Metabolism: Clinical and ExperimentalCitation Excerpt :This evidence has given rise to the notion that immune-modulation through vaccination containing atherogenesis-related antigens could trigger a specific immune response without affecting global immunity and with the potential for a more sustained, long-term effect. The concept was originally proposed in 1959, and preclinical studies have yielded promising results [65]. However, the translation to the clinical setting has been slow.

2010, VaccineCitation Excerpt :The modulation of the immune system through vaccination may represent a valuable strategy to prevent and/or treat both atherosclerosis and obesity [6–8]. The earliest attempt to manage atherosclerosis through immune modulation has been reported in 1959 by Hungarian scientists Gero et al., who immunized rabbits with beta-lipoproteins isolated from serum of cockerels [9]. In 1970s Soviet researchers proposed that atherosclerosis is an autoimmune disease and tolerization with low doses of some but not all lipoprotein fractions can prevent atherogenic process [10,11].
