Extent of antioxidant protection of plasma LDL is not a predictor of the antiatherogenic effect of antioxidants

Oxidation of LDL plays all important role in atherogenesis. The lag-time in the formation of conjugated dienes provides a sensitive measure of the resistance of plasma LDL to oxidation and is widely assumed to be an indicator of atherogenic risk. To test this assumption, we investigated whether diff...
