Oxidative modification and antioxidant protection of human low density lipoprotein at high and low oxygen partial pressures
Oxidative modification of low density lipoprotein (LDL) in the subendothelial space of the arterial wall has been implicated as an initial process in atherosclerosis. In vitro studies of LDL oxidation are usually done at ambient oxygen partial pressure (pO2; approximately 160 torr, or 21ȅ O2), which...
