炎性细胞在高血压中的作用

高血压是一种以动脉压升高为特征,可伴有心脏、血管、脑和肾脏等靶器官损害的全身性疾病。高血压是生活中的常见病,与心脑血管及代谢性疾病的发生、发展密切相关,严重威胁人类健康,高血压的病因目前尚不完全明确。近年来越来越多的资料显示高血压病常伴有机体免疫功能紊乱,研究表明血管炎性细胞及炎性因子与高血压关系密切。对炎症与高血压相关性的深入认识能为进一步研究高血压的防治方法提供理论依据。

The Role of Inflammatory Cells in Hypertension

Hypertension is a systemic disease featured with the elevated blood pressure in the arteries,accompanied with damage of target organs including heart,arteries,brain and kidney.Hypertension is a common disease in life and represents a major risk factor for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases,severely threatening human health.The precise mechanisms of hypertension is still unclear.In the recent years,more data suggest immunologic dysfunction may contribute to hypertension,and the recent discoveries indicate that inflammatory cells and cytokine play an essential role in hypertension.The further research on the correlation of inflammatory and hypertension will provide reference for the prevention and treatment of hypertension.
