Oxidant resistant human apolipoprotein A-I functions similarly to the unmodified human isoform in delaying atherosclerosis progression and promoting atherosclerosis regression in hyperlipidemic mice.
<h4>Background</h4>Transgenic overexpression of apolipoprotein A-I (apoA1) has been shown to delay atherosclerosis lesion progression and promote lesion regression in mouse models; however, apoA1 is subject to oxidation by myeloperoxidase (MPO) and loss of function. The activity of oxida...
