## Abstract Homocysteine‐thiolactone (HcyT) is a toxic product whose synthesis is directly proportional to plasma homocysteine (Hcy) levels. Previous studies demonstrated that the interaction between HcyT and low density lipoproteins (LDL) induces the formation of homocystamide‐LDL adducts (Hcy‐LDL
Neovascularization, a common occurrence in chronic inflammatory lesions, requires endothelial cell (EC) proliferation. Because this form of inflammation is often mediated by immunologically generated cytokines, the effects of such cytokines on human umbilical vein EC proliferation in vitro were inve
