Sumario:Due to the increasing population of individualswith cardiovascular diseases and related comorbidities, there is an increasing need for development of synergistic therapeutics. Monocytes are implicated in a broad spectrum of diseases and can serve as a focal point for therapeutic targeting. This review discusses the role of monocytes in cardiovascular diseases and highlights trends in monocyte targets nanoparticles in three cardiovascular-related diseases: Diabetes, Atherosclerosis, and HIV. Finally, the review offers perspectives on how to develop nanoparticle monocyte targeting strategies that can be beneficial for treating co-morbidities.
