 Heart disease or cardiovascular diseases is the class of diseases that involve the heart or blood vessels (arteries and veins). While the term technically refers to any disease that affects the cardiovascular system, it is usually used to refer to those related to arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries).  Heart disease or cardiovascular diseases is the class of diseases that involve the heart or blood vessels (arteries and veins).

 +Macrophages are central to atherogenesis because they regulate cholesterol traffic and inflammation in the arterial wall. <blockquote>Excess 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 exacerbates tubulointerstitial injury in mice by modulating macrophage phenotype. (({{pubmed>long:26579677}})) </blockquote>
  
 According to the Marshall Pathogenesis, cardiovascular diseases result from the combined effects of communities of microbes that people gradually accumulate over time via the process of successive infection. In fact, there is some evidence that arterial plaque may at least be partly composed of biofilm, a community of diverse microbes that work together.  According to the Marshall Pathogenesis, cardiovascular diseases result from the combined effects of communities of microbes that people gradually accumulate over time via the process of successive infection.
