Abstract

Abbreviations used in this paper: CAD, coronary artery disease; EDRF, endothelial-dependent relaxing factor; MDA-LDL, malodial- dehyde-conjugated LDL; Ox-LDL, oxidized LDL. per (Fig. 1).In addition, LDL can be oxidized by incubation with crude soybean lipoxygenase (9).Several lines of evidence suggest that oxidation induced by endothelial cells (10) or by macrophages ( 11) depends on lipoperoxides generated intracel- lularly and then transferred to the LDL.Cellular lipoxygenases, especially 1 5-lipoxygenase, appear to be involved (10, 1 1).Al- ternatively, reactive oxygen species, such as superoxide anion, may be secreted into the medium, leading to initiation of lipid peroxidation in the LDL.This mechanism may predominate in smooth muscle cells (7).Once the LDL is "seeded" with Role ofOxidized Low Density Lipoprotein in Atherogenesis 1785

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
