Development of Human‐Like Advanced Coronary Plaques in Low‐Density Lipoprotein Receptor Knockout Pigs and Justification for Statin Treatment Before Formation of Atherosclerotic Plaques
BACKGROUND: Although clinical trials have proved that statin can be used prophylactically against cardiovascular events, the direct effects of statin on plaque development are not well understood. We generated low‐density lipoprotein receptor knockout (LDLR (−/−)) pigs to study the effects of early...
