Proinflammatory Action of a New Electronegative Low-Density Lipoprotein Epitope

Proinflammatory Action of a New Electronegative Low-Density Lipoprotein Epitope

The electronegative low-density lipoprotein, LDL (−), is an endogenously modified LDL subfraction with cytotoxic and proinflammatory actions on endothelial cells, monocytes, and macrophages contributing to the progression of atherosclerosis. In this study, epitopes of LDL (−) wer...
