Natural History of Atherosclerosis

  • Chapter
Atherosclerosis

Part of the book series: Altschul Symposia Series ((ALSS,volume 1))

Abstract

Perhaps the three features most characteristic of atherosclerosis are lipid accumulation, abnormal growth of smooth muscle, and thrombotic occlusion. This review will focus on the role of smooth muscle proliferation in the atherosclerotic process and will attempt to identify key questions relevant to the ultimate conversion of a benign, smooth muscle lesion into a progressive and fatal, vaso-occlusive lesion.
