Opis

Explores endogenous lipoprotein particles and their interaction with pharmacological agents. Among the topics are receptor-dependent interactions of lipoproteins with tissues and cell types, their uptake and transport with the vascular endothelium, therapeutic and chemical agents that associate in v
