Pathology of atheromatous lesions in inbred and genetically engineered mice. Genetic determination of arterial calcification.
1 Sept 1994
Abstract excerpt
We report comprehensive pathological studies of atheromatous lesions in various inbred mouse strains fed a high-fat, high-cholesterol diet and in two genetically engineered strains that develop spontaneous lesions on a low-fat chow diet. Coronary and aortic lesions were studied with respect to anatomic locations, lesion severity, calcification, and lipofuscin deposition. Surprisingly, the genetic determinants for...
