Adipose‐Derived Exosomes Exert Proatherogenic Effects by Regulating Macrophage Foam Cell Formation and Polarization

BackgroundObesity is causally associated with atherosclerosis, and adipose tissue (AT)–derived exosomes may be implicated in the metabolic complications of obesity. However, the precise role of AT‐exosomes in atherogenesis remains unclear. We herein aimed to assess the effect of AT‐exosomes on macro...
