dc.description.abstract	Purpose of review: To consider the role of endocan as an inflammatory marker in cardiovascular diseases. Recent findings: Endocan, an endothelial inflammatory marker, is associated with cardiovascular disease. Summary: Vascular endothelial inflammation plays a key role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory and cardiovascular diseases by influencing thrombogenesis, tumour invasion and secretion of bioactive mediators. We discuss the role of endocan mainly in the context of cardiology.	en_US
