FTY720, a Synthetic Sphingosine 1 Phosphate Analogue, Inhibits Development of Atherosclerosis in Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor–Deficient Mice

Abstract
Background— Numerous in vitro studies suggest that sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), a bioactive lysosphingolipid associated with high-density lipoproteins, accounts at least partly for the potent ant...
