Inhibition of macrophage metabolism by oxLDL
Intracellular oxidative stress is induced by oxidised low density lipoprotein (oxLDL) in macrophages. In the atherosclerotic lesions, this oxLDL dependent oxidative stress appears to cause macrophage cell death, a key process in the development of the necrotic core within the complex plaque. Macroph...
