Adenovirus-mediated overexpression of sphingomyelin synthases 1 and 2 increases the atherogenic potential in mice

Sphingomyelin synthase 1 (SMS1) and SMS2 are two isoforms of SMS, the last enzyme for sphingomyelin (SM) biosynthesis. To evaluate the role of SMS in vivo in terms of plasma lipoprotein metabolism, we generated recombinant adenovirus vectors containing human SMS1 cDNA (AdV-SMS1), SMS2 cDNA (AdV-SMS2...
