Turnover and tissue sites of degradation of glucosylated low density lipoprotein in normal and immunized rabbits
Immunological mechanisms have been implicated in the atherogenic process since immunoglobulins are frequently found in the atherosclerotic aorta. We have previously shown that modifications of homologous low density lipoproteins (LDL) make it immunogenic. In particular we have demonstrated that immu...
