Moreover, in macrophage, TFA reduced the expression of scavenger receptors such as CD36 and SRA; and promoted the expression of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 and G1 (ABCA1/G1). More importantly, TFA reduced miR-33 expression and dampened NFκB activity, by which de-repressing ABCA1/G1 activity and inhibiting the inflammation. Collectively, TFA can attenuate atherosclerosis via dual suppression of miR-33 and NFκB pathway, and partially through inhibition of scavenger receptors in macrophage. In addition, TFA ameliorates the hepatic steatosis and lipid disorder, which in turn contributes to the amelioration of atherosclerosis, suggesting that TFA might be a novel therapeutic approach for inhibition of atherosclerosis and hepatic steatosis.Hypertension is the prevailing independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease worldwide. Anti-hypertensive drugs are the common and effective cure for lowering blood pressure in patients with hypertension. However, some large-scale clinical studies have pointed out that long-term ingestion of some oral anti-hypertensive drugs was associated with risks of incident cancer and the survival time. In contrast, other studies argue that anti-hypertensive drugs are not related to the occurrence of cancer, even as a complementary therapy of tumor treatment. To resolve the dispute, numerous recent mechanistic studies using animal models have tried to find the causal link between cancer and different anti-hypertensive drugs. However, the results were often contradictory. Such uncertainties have taken a toll on hypertensive patients. In this review, we will summarize advances of longitudinal studies in the association between anti-hypertensive drugs and related tumor risks that have helped to move the field forward from associ
