We have previously shown that expression of the human apo A-I transgene on the apo E-deficient background increases HDL cholesterol and greatly diminishes fatty streak lesion formation. To examine the mechanism, prelesional events in atherosclerotic plaque development were examined in 6- to 8-week-old apo E-deficient and apo E-deficient/human apo A-I transgenic mice. A quantitative assessment of subendothelial...
