Abstract
The recruitment and infiltration of monocytes into the artery wall is a crucial early step in atherogenesis. KR-31378 has been shown to be a neuroprotective agent in rat brain via its potent antioxidant and antiapoptotic actions. Here, we report the effects of this compound on atherogenesis, and some possible mechanisms of action.(omitted)
