Effects of simvastatin on plasma lipoproteins and response to arterial injury in wild-type and apolipoprotein-E-deficient mice.
OBJECTIVE: To test the non-lipid-lowering effects of simvastatin on the response to injury in normolipidemic and hyperlipidemic mice. METHODS AND RESULTS: Wild-type (WT) mice (n = 40) and hyperlipidemic apolipoprotein-E-deficient (apoE(-/-)) mice (n = 40) received normal chow or chow containing sim...
