摘要

We have shown that changes in the phospholipid and fatty acid composition of atherosclerotic plaques in the carotid arteries of patients who underwent carotid endarterectomy in combination with coronary artery bypass surgery are linked with the development of the pathological process and highlight the importance of cytochrome C-mediated induction of oxidation of membrane phospholipids. An increase of the steady-state equilibrium constant of cytochrome C with atherosclerotic membranes to 10–5 M and simultaneously a more than three-fold enhancement of LPO process are demonstrated.
