Particularly, acute myocarditis is characterized by dysregulated immune signaling, with cytokines (IL-2, IFN-γ, IL-12, IL-4, IL-10) and chemokines (MCP-1, CXCL4, CXCL10) driving disease progression, while adhesion molecules (ICAM-1, VCAM-1, VAP-1) promote leukocyte trafficking and cardiac inflammation. The gene discussed is ICAM1; the disease is acute myocarditis.
