LPL
Arterial response to injury
hyperlipidemic conditions

A 1x2-mm strip of filter paper saturated with 10% FeCl3 solution was applied to the adventitial surface of the surgically exposed carotid artery for 3.0 minutes, then removed. The surgical incision was sutured with 4–0 monofilament, and the animal was returned to its cage.
