摘要: Oxidative modification converts LDL to an atherogenic form and 15-lipoxygenase has been implicated in this process. Several lines of experimental evidence support such a proatherogenic action the enzyme. However, recent data obtained with transgenic rabbits overexpressing suggest also antiatherogenic effect. In paper pathophysiological relevance atherogenesis is critically reviewed.
