Effects of doxazosin, an alpha 1-adrenergic inhibitor, on plasma lipid and lipoprotein levels, low density lipoprotein metabolism and cholesterol absorption in cynomolgus monkeys.

abstract：BACKGROUND AND AIMS:We recently showed that miR-223-3p on high-density lipoproteins (HDL) is exported to endothelial cells, where it inhibits inflammation. However, the origin of miR-223-3p on HDL is unknown. We hypothesize that HDL-associated miR-223-3p originates in myeloid cells and is exported to HDL in a scavenger...
