Expression of the Lystbeige mutation is atheroprotective in chow-fed apolipoprotein E-deficient mices⃞

Lystbeige mice crossed with hyperlipidemic low density lipoprotein receptor-deficient mice (BgLDLr−/−) display increased lesion area and a more stable lesion morphology. To verify that the beige phenotype is not unique to LDLr−/− mice, we examined atherosclerosis in beige, apolipoprotein E-deficient...
