Title: [Relationship between the thickness of the aortic adventitia and the fat content of blood and the aortic wall]. Author: Lusztig G, Mák L. Journal: Z Gesamte Inn Med; 1976 Jul 15; 31(14):539-41. PubMed ID: 986730. Abstract: 10 rabbits underwent a cholesterol feeding. 10 rabbits were used as control animals. After 12 weeks in the tissue extract of the intima-media-complex of the aorta as well as in the serum the total lipids and the total cholesterol were determined. On histological preparations the thickness of the adventitia of the aorta was measured. In comparison to the control group the animals fed with cholesterol showed a significant increase of the lipid values in the serum and the aorta as well as of the thickness of the adventitia. However, no connections could be proved between the parameters of the serum lipids and the morphological changes of the adventitia.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
