Lipoprotein metabolism by macrophages from atherosclerosis-susceptible White Carneau and resistant Show Racer pigeons.
The presence of specific receptors for the metabolism of acetylated low density lipoprotein (AcLDL) and beta-migrating very low density lipoprotein (beta-VLDL) was demonstrated in thioglycolate-elicited peritoneal macrophages from both atherosclerosis-susceptible White Carneau (WC) and resistant Show Racer (SR) pigeons.Macrophages from both tenma v
