Visfatin Destabilizes Atherosclerotic Plaques in Apolipoprotein E–Deficient Mice

OBJECTIVES: Although there is evidence that visfatin is associated with atherogenesis, the effect of visfatin on plaque stability has not yet been explored. METHODS: In vivo, vulnerable plaques were established by carotid collar placement in apolipoprotein E–deficient (ApoE(−/−)) mice, and lentiviru...
