Probucol Protects Endothelial Progenitor Cells Against Oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein via Suppression of Reactive Oxygen Species Formation In Vivo
Background/Aims: Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) is a major component of hyperlipidemia and contributes to atherosclerosis. Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) play an important role in preventing atherosclerosis and notably decreased in hyperlipidemia. Ox-LDL and ox-LDL-related reactive o...
