SR-BI in bone marrow derived cells protects mice from diet induced coronary artery atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction.

SR-BI in bone marrow derived cells protects mice from diet induced coronary artery atherosclerosis and myocardial infarction.

SR-BI deficient mice that are also hypomorphic for apolipoprotein E expression develop diet induced occlusive coronary artery atherosclerosis, myocardial infarction and early death. To test the role of SR-BI in bone marrow derived cells, we used bone marrow transplantation to generate SR-BI-null; ap...
