| Abstract: | Summary Endothelial cells and macrophages can be identified in cultures from rabbit aortae with experimentally induced plaques. Macrophages can not be seen in cultures from intact aortic sectors.The morphologic and cytochemical characteristics of the two cell types have been described in detail.The possible origin and fate of macrophages were discussed.This study was supported by grant HE-02534-08SI from the National Heart Institute, U.S.P.H.S. |
