Import and fate of fluorescent analogs of oxidized phospholipids in vascular smooth muscle cells

Lipid oxidation is now thought to be an initiating and sustaining event in atherogenesis. Oxidatively fragmented phospholipids, namely 1-palmitoyl-2-glutaroyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (PGPC) and 1-palmitoyl-2-(5-oxovaleroyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (POVPC), present in minimally modified LDL a...
