The hypoxia-sensor carbonic anhydrase IX affects macrophage metabolism, but is not a suitable biomarker for human cardiovascular disease
Abstract Hypoxia is prevalent in atherosclerotic plaques, promoting plaque aggravation and subsequent cardiovascular disease (CVD). Transmembrane protein carbonic anhydrase IX (CAIX) is hypoxia-induced and can be shed into the circulation as soluble CAIX (sCAIX). As plaque macrophages are hypoxic, w...
