7,8-dihydroneopterin inhibition of oxidised low density lipoprotein-induced cellular death

The death of monocyte and macrophage cells in the atherosclerotic plaque is thought to be due principally to the toxicity of oxidised LDL (oxLDL). This makes an important contribution to the development of the lipid core of advanced plaque and also to the overall stability of the plaque. Under infl...
