Advanced glycation end products potentiate the stimulatory effect of glucose on macrophage lipoprotein lipase expression
Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) secreted by macrophages in the arterial wall promotes atherosclerosis. We have shown that macrophages of patients with type 2 diabetes overproduce LPL and that metabolic factors, including glucose, stimulate macrophage LPL secretion. In this study, we determined the effect o...
