Complete deletion of Cd39 is atheroprotective in apolipoprotein E-deficient mice

Cd39 scavenges extracellular ATP and ADP, ultimately generating adenosine, a nucleoside, which has anti-inflammatory effects in the vasculature. We have evaluated the role of Cd39 in the development of atherosclerosis in hyperlipidemic mice. ApoE KO (Cd39(+/+)/ApoE(−/−)) and Cd39/ApoE double KO (DKO...
