- The pro-inflammatory and regulatory roles of T lymphocytes in atherosclerosis are well established but less is known about natural killer (NK) cells and natural killer T (NKT)-like cells. The effects of cardiovascular risk management on the phenotypes of these cells are unknown. To assess changes in NK cell and lymphocyte phenotypes and circulating inflammatory proteins in response to cardiovascular risk management in patients with carotid atherosclerosis. Fifty patients were included in a prospective clinical study. Measurements were at baseline and after 12 months of cardiovascular risk management. Circulating NK, NKT-like and T lymphocyte subpopulations were phenotyped by multi-colour flow cytometry. Proximity extension assay was performed for 176 plasma proteins associated with inflammation and cardiovascular disease. At 12 months there were significant reductions in LDL (P=0.001) and blood pressure (P=0.028). NK cells responded with a reduction in pro-inflammatory (NKG2C(+)) cells (P=0.0003), an increase in anti-inflammatory (NKG2A(+)) cells (P=0.032), and a reduction in terminally differentiated (CD57(+)) NK cells. NKT-like cells showed a similar decrease in terminally differentiated subpopulations (P=0.000002). Subpopulations of T helper cells exhibited a significant reduction in central memory (P=1.09x10(-8)) and a significant increase in CD4(+) naive- (P=0.0008) and effector memory T cells (P=0.006). The protein analysis indicated that cardiovascular risk management affects proteins involved in the inflammatory NF-kappa B pathway. The consistent decrease in senescent phenotypes of NK, NKT-like and CD4(+) cells with a concomitant increase in more naive, phenotypes suggests a change towards a less pro-inflammatory lymphocyte profile in response to cardiovascular risk management.Trial registry name: CARotid MRI of Atherosclerosis (CARMA).
