Journal ArticleDOI

The pathogenesis of coronary artery disease and the acute coronary syndromes (1).

TL;DR: The two hypotheses to explain the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, the "incrustation" hypothesis and the "lipid" hypothesis, are now known.
Journal ArticleDOI

Regression of atherosclerotic lesions by high density lipoprotein plasma fraction in the cholesterol-fed rabbit.

TL;DR: This is the first in vivo, prospective evidence of the antiatherogenic effect of HDL-VHDL against preexisting atherosclerosis and suggests that it may be possible not only to inhibit progression but even to reduce established atherosclerotic lesions by HDL administration.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The role of vascular injury in the pathogenesis of spontaneous and accelerated atherosclerosis, and the resultant cellular pathophysiologic responses, specifically, lipid accumulation, platelet aggregation, thrombus formation and smooth muscle cell proliferation, are discussed.
