Altered choline level in atherosclerotic lesions: Upregulation of choline transporter-like protein 1 in human coronary unstable plaque.

Inflammatory activity and hypoxia in atherosclerotic plaques are associated with plaque instability and thrombotic complications. Recent studies show that vascular cell metabolism affects atherogenesis and thrombogenicity. This study aimed to identify the metabolites in macrophage-rich unstable plaq...
