Oxidation of LDL by rabbit and human 15-lipoxygenase: prevalence of nonenzymatic reactions
15-Lipoxygenase (15-LO)-induced oxidation of lipids in human LDL may be pro-atherogenic. However, the extent to which 15-LO promotes enzymatic oxidation of esterified (i.e., major) lipids in LDL may depend on various factors. Here, we show that overall, LDL lipid oxidation was favored with high acti...
