CXCL8 and atherosclerosis: Several of the differentially regulated genes are involved in vascular pathophysiology; for example: DNAJB6 [37] and DUSP1 (atherosclerosis) [38], NAMPT (vascular inflammation) [39,40], FCAR (myocardial infarction) [41], IL8 (vascular remodelling) [42], FFAR2 (lipid metabolism) [43] and SOD2 (idiopathic cardiomyopathy (IDC)) [44].
