What is it about?

The study was to assess the cytotoxic effects of mixtures of oxysterols on two cell types associated with the atherosclerotic process, bovine aortic endothelial (BAE) cells and human monocytic U937 cells.

Why is it important?

Results demonstrate interactive effects when oxysterols are studied as mixtures rather than single compounds in vitro.

Perspectives

This research helped to further the research on the mechanisms of oxysterol toxicity in two cell types associated with the atherosclerotic process, bovine aortic endothelial (BAE) cells and human monocytic U937 cells.
