Promotes Inflammatory Programs in Human and Murine Macrophages and Alters Atherosclerosis Lesion Composition in the Apolipoprotein E Deficient Mouse.

The Triggering Receptor Expressed on Myeloid cells-like 4 (TREML4) is a member of the TREM receptor family, known modulators of inflammatory responses. We have previously found that expression positively correlates with human coronary arterial calcification (CAC). However, the role of in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease remains incompletely defined.
