Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) represents a major health burden worldwide. It is driven by chronic inflammation of the arterial vasculature supplying the heart, in response to pro-inflammatory assaults such as high LDL cholesterol. The resultant atherosclerosis can cause occlusive disease and acute cardiovascular events. The pro-inflammatory cytokin...

Introduction: Type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is associated with early and severe atherosclerosis. However, few biomarkers can predict cardiovascular events in this population. Methods: We followed 964 patients with coronary artery disease (CAD), assessing plasma levels of galectin-3, monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1), and N-terminal fr...

The dysregulated immune system represents a major target for improving health outcomes in a range of chronic conditions. This chapter describes key changes in the immune system as we age and showcases its dysregulation across five chronic conditions including diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer, highlighting dysregulated key immune system pathways and resultant inflammatory sequelae. Precision medicine aims to subdivide patients into different groups who will respond to specific treatments and could offer a novel way of addressing the complexity of immune system involvement in these conditions. The potential for precision medicine-led therapeutic strategies is discussed for each condition and considered in the context of multimorbidity.
