High Concentration of Low-Density Lipoprotein Results in Disturbances in Mitochondrial Transcription and Functionality in Endothelial Cells

Concentrations of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) above 0.8 mg/ml have been associated with increased risk for cardiovascular diseases and impaired endothelial functionality. Here, we demonstrate that high concentrations of LDL (1 mg/ml) decreased NOS3 protein and RNA levels in primary human endotheli...
