The innate immune system plays a crucial role in cardiovascular disease initiation, progression and complications. TREM-1, a receptor mainly expressed by myeloid cells, orchestrates inflammatory responses and amplifies cytokine and chemokine production as well as oxidative burst. Recent experimental studies have demonstrated that TREM-1 blockade is protective, limiting atherosclerosis and abdominal aortic aneurysm development, as well as adverse tissue remodeling after cardiac or cerebral ischemic injuries. Plasma soluble TREM-1 level is a promising biomarker in patients with cardiovascular diseases for risk stratification, paving the way for personalized immune-modulatory approaches.

Neuroinflammation is a key factor in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). Activated microglia in the central nervous system (CNS) and infiltration of peripheral immune cells contribute to dopaminergic neuron loss. However, the role of peripheral immune responses, particularly triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1), in PD remains unclear.

Background: The chronic inflammatory condition known as multiple sclerosis (MS) causes inflammation and demyelination in the central nervous system (CNS). The activation of multiple cell types, including the CNS's resident immune cells called microglia, is a component of the immunological response in MS. Recently, the triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells (TREM) family has emerged as a crucial player in modulating microglial function and subsequent neuroinflammation.

Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is characterized by immune system failure, vascular insult, autoimmunity, and tissue fibrosis. TGF-β is a crucial mediator of persistent myofibroblast activation and aberrant extracellular matrix production in SSc. The factors responsible for this are unknown.

Inflammation and infiltration of immune cells are intricately linked to the pathogenesis of atrial fibrillation (AF). Triggering receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (TREM-1), an enhancer of inflammation, is implicated in various cardiovascular disorders. However, the precise role and potential mechanisms of TREM-1 in the development of AF remain ambiguous.
