Increased glycosphingolipid levels in serum and aortae of apolipoprotein E gene knockout mice

The apolipoprotein E gene knockout (apoE−/−) mouse develops atherosclerosis that shares many features of human atherosclerosis. Increased levels of glycosphingolipid (GSL) have been reported in human atherosclerotic lesions; however, GSL levels have not been studied in the apoE−/− mouse. Here we use...
