Abstract

On the basis of our own experimental data together with analysis of appropriate literature the role of Chlamydia pneumoniae in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and its complications is discussed. Given data allow to look at the presence of Chlamydia into blood vessel wall as one of the leading risk factors of the atherosclerosis and the ishemic heart disease.
