27-hydroxycholesterol and endothelial cell immune memory link maternal hypercholesterolemia with atherosclerosis in the offspring: Atherogenesis

Research output: Contribution to journalComment/debatepeer-review

Abstract

Maternal hypercholesterolemia can exaggerate the development of atherosclerosis in adult offspring. Research now shows that the cholesterol metabolite 27-hydroxycholesterol invokes AP-1-mediated immune memory in progeny endothelial cells to increase vascular inflammation and atherosclerosis severity in adulthood.
