Effects of oxidatively modified LDL on cholesterol esterification in cultured macrophages.
Oxidative modification of low density lipoproteins (LDL) has been shown to cause accelerated degradation of LDL via the scavenger receptor pathway in cultured macrophages, and it has been proposed that this process might lead to cholesterol accumulation in macrophages in the arterial wall in vivo.
