Stacked Human Arterial Endothelial Cells Generate Atherosclerotic Fatty Streaks and Release Proinflammatory Cytokines
2024-11-04
Abstract excerpt
Fatty streaks are the first sign of atherosclerosis. They consist of lipid-containing foam cells, which were believed to be derived from the monocytes in the blood through the leaky endothelium, and from the vascular smooth muscle cells migrating into the intima from the media. Here, we showed that fatty streaks can also be formed by the stacked human arterial endothelial cells (HAECs) cultured in vitro. Via SEM w...
