BACKGROUND: The CC-chemokines (CKs) recruit monocytes/macrophages to sites of inflammation; several different CC-CKs play a role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. The vaccinia virus expresses a 35-kDa soluble protein (35K) that binds to and inactivates nearly all of the CC-CKs, providing a potentially useful therapeutic strategy for broad-spectrum CC-CK inhibition in atherosclerosis. A recombinant adenovirus encoding soluble 35K (Ad35K) was generated to investigate the effect of 35K ge...
