Schematic representation of the involvement of ICAM and VCAM in various cardiovascular diseases. So far, better knowledge and a picture of the pathological roles of ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 in humans will drive us to conduct more clinical studies to validate their threatening effect on vascular function. Furthermore, accessibility to new biomarkers/targets (ICAM-1 and VCAM-1) could provide considerable improvements in patient risk assessment and may further act as a therapeutic molecule in the management and preventive strategies of various cardiovascular diseases.
