Effect of Streptozotocin-Induced Hyperglycemia on Lipid Profiles, Formation of Advanced Glycation Endproducts in Lesions, and Extent of Atherosclerosis in LDL Receptor-Deficient Mice

Abstract
Investigations into the mechanisms by which diabetes accelerates atherosclerosis have been hampered by the lack of suitable animal models. We hypothesized that streptozotocin-treated LDL r...
