| Abstract |
Both L-4F, one apolipoprotein A-1 mimetic peptide, and statins can reduce progression of atherosclerosis by different mechanisms. The combination of the two drugs can cause lesion regression by rendering HDL anti-inflammatory. We postulated that combination of L-4F and simvastatin may stimulate cholesterol efflux and related proteins expressions to alleviate atherosclerosis. |
