Studies on the Role of Increased Arterial Glycolysis in Atherogenesis

  • Chapter
Atherosclerosis

Part of the book series: Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology ((AEMB,volume 82))

Abstract

Aerobic glycolysis is a comparative rarity in normal tissues, whereas it is almost the hallmark of neoplastic tissue (1), and it also appears to be a characteristic of arterial metabolism. The question arises whether the high rate of arterial glycolysis is in any way related to atherogenesis. The conclusions from different lines of investigations appear to shed some light in this regard.
