The erythrocyte: a new player in atheromatous core formation
Heart.
2002 Aug.
Abstract
The membrane of the red blood cell hides constituents that are lipid rich and can bind to macrophage scavenger receptors, thus posing the challenging hypothesis that erythrocytes contribute to atheroma formation in coronary arteries.
