Resumen:
Atherosclerosis, a known and prevalent disease, causes progressive deterioration of affected vessels inducing a blood flow reduction with different complications and its symptoms usually manifest in advanced stages of the disease. Therefore, the classic therapeutic alternatives are insufficient because the damages are many times irreversible.For this reason, arises the need for implement intelligent forms of drug administration and develop new therapeutic targets than reduce the progression of atherosclerotic lesion. It?s of special interest the implementation of new tools for prevention, diagnosis and treatment of this and other cardiovascular pathologies, focusing our attention in achieving a more effective control on immune system. Finally, this review highlights the latest knowledge about nanotechnology as a powerful, modern and promising therapeutic alternative applied to atherosclerotic disease, however, we also warns of potential complications with their use.
