Programmed death-1 (PD-1) is an activation marker of lymphocytes induced by antigen
specific and non-specific stimulation that is overexpressed soon after the trigger
onset in order to limit inflammation [
[1]
]. In turn this leads to a certain regulation of the adaptive immune response by inducing
controlled death in massively activated lymphocytes [
[2]
]. Knowledge on the PD-1 in cardiovascular diseases is scarce and its dynamics in ST-segment
elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) is unknown.Keywords
