[Effect of lipoprotein metabolism abnormality for intimal thickening].
Recent advances of lipoprotein metabolism abnormality were reviewed. Recombinant apolipoprotein and transgenic mice expressing high levels of apolipoproteins or apolipoprotein deficient mice produced by gene targetting technique are providing important information on effect of lipoprotein metabolism. We made novel mouse cuff injury model for transgenic mice and knock-out mice. This injury model will also provide important information on intimal thickening using transgenic mice and knock-out mouse.
