Lipoxygenases (LOXs) form a heterogeneous family of lipid-peroxidizing enzymes, and several LOX-isoforms (12/15-LOX, 5-LOX) have been implicated in atherogenesis. However, the precise role of these enzymes is still a matter of discussion. 12/15-LOXs are capable of oxidizing lipoproteins (low-density
