Abstract
Recent data suggests that CD40L is involved in the pathogenesis of atherothrombotic disease. This review will focus on the history of CD40L, its role in platelet-mediated pathogenesis of atherothrombotic disease, its association to clinical syndromes and procedures, and its role in determining plaque rupture.
