The interaction of human apoB-containing lipoproteins with mouse peritoneal macrophages: a comparison of Lp(a) with LDL.
Cholesteryl ester accumulation in macrophages and foam cell formation is believed to play an important role in atherogenesis. The effect of Lp(a) on the incorporation of [14C]oleate into cholesteryl esters was studied in mouse peritoneal macrophages. In view of the physico-chemical similarities betw...
