The pleiotropic effect of statins on immune cell function
In this thesis, the pleiotropic effects of statins on the disruption of prenylation and membrane rafts were investigated in immune effector cells. T cells and NK cells were extracted from various groups of patients treated with statins and proliferation and cytotoxicity respectively, measured ex viv...
