Platelet-enhanced apolipoprotein E production by human macrophages: a possible role in atherosclerosis
Cholesterol-loaded human monocyte-derived macrophages increase their production of apolipoprotein E (apoE). Although cholesterol loading is often achieved with modified plasma lipoproteins, macrophages can be loaded also by coculture with platelets. Therefore, the relationship between platelet-media...
