Core Tip	The inhibition of atherosclerosis is one of primary target for the therapeutics of cardiovascular diseases, which is the eminent health problem worldwide. The important function of toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) in the activation and progression of atherosclerosis is justified here. The TLR4 in turn activates the mitogen activated protein kinase (MAPKs) and nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells which are responsible for most of the inflammatory events. Hence, therapeutic inhibition of TLR4/MAPKS signaling pathway is one of the best method of inhibiting atherosclerosis.
