The combination of L-4F and simvastatin stimulate cholesterol efflux and related proteins expressions to reduce atherosclerotic lesions in apoE knockout mice

BACKGROUND: 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 st...
