Angiotoxicity of oxygenated sterols and possible precursors

Angiotoxicity of oxygenated sterols and possible precursors

H Imai et al. Science. .

Abstract

Cell death, inflammation, and repair in rabbits' aortas and pulmonary arteries were observed at 3-, 7-, and 10-day periods after the intravenous injection of oxygenated sterols. Thus, oxygenated sterols, not cholesterol, may play the primary role in arterial wall injury and lesion development.
