Abstract Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by the accumulation of fatty deposits in inner walls vessels. These plaques restrict blood flow and lead to complications such as heart attack or stroke. The development atherosclerosis influenced variety factors, including age, genetics, lifestyle, underlying health conditions high pressure diabetes. Atherosclerotic stable form are slow growth, which leads luminal stenosis, with low embolic potential unstable form, contributes risk for thrombotic rapid clinical onset. In this complex scenario atherosclerosis, macrophages participate whole process, initiation, growth eventually rupture wound healing stages artery plaque formation. Macrophages exhibit heterogeneity plasticity, affect evolving microenvironment, e.g., leading excessive lipid accumulation, cytokine hyperactivation, hypoxia, apoptosis necroptosis. metabolic functional transitions response microenvironmental factors not only influence ongoing imminent responses within lesions but also directly dictate atherosclerotic progression regression. review, we discuss origin plaques, their phenotypic diversity, shifts, fate roles they play dynamic atherosclerosis.
