Mechanism of ceroid formation in atherosclerotic plaque: in situ studies combination of Raman and fluorescence spectroscopy

Accumulation of the lipid-protein complex ceroid is a characteristic of atherosclerotic plaque. The mechanism of ceroid formation has been extensively studied, because the complex is postulated to contribute to plaque irreversibility. Despite intensive research, ceroid deposits are defined through t...
