abstract：AIMS:Apolipoprotein E (apoE) may act as a vasculoprotective factor by promoting plasma lipid clearance and cholesterol efflux. Moreover, apoE accumulates at sites of vascular injury and modulates the effect of growth factors on smooth muscle cells (SMCs). Experimental data suggested that hypothalamic apoE expression is...
