Eicosanoid metabolism in cholesterol-enriched arterial smooth muscle cells: reduced arachidonate release with concomitant decrease in cyclooxygenase products.
A biochemical correlation between vascular cholesterol metabolism and eicosanoid biosynthesis has not been fully elucidated. To assess the effects of cholesteryl ester (CE) accretion on eicosanoid synthesis, we studied eicosanoid metabolism in cultured rabbit aortic smooth muscle cells (SMC) followi...
