Oxidative stress, oxidized low density lipoprotein, lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 and atherosclerosis / 国际脑血管病杂志

ABSTRACT

Oxidative stress is 811 important risk factor for premature athcrosclcrosis.Itis involved in a variety of pathophysiological processes,including mitochondrial damage,freeradical release,lipid peroxidation,phospholipase activation,and infl~niatory modiator release.A growing body of research suggests that oxidative stress,oxidized low density hpoprotein,andlipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 Play important roles in the occurrence and developmentof athcrosclcrosis.Therefore,investigating their relationship contributes to deepen theunderstanding of athcrosclerosis and take appropriate preventive measures.
