Evidence for a dominant role of lipoxygenase(s) in the oxidation of LDL by mouse peritoneal macrophages
It has been suggested that the oxidative modification of low density lipoprotein (LDL) is a key event in atherogenesis. Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain how different types of cells modify LDL. In this study we examine the relative contributions of superoxide anions and cellular lipo...
