Abstract

In mice that are heterozygous for mitochondrial superoxide dismutase (SOD2(+/-)) with apoE deficiency (apoE(-/-)), mitochondrial DNA damage increases formation of atherosclerotic lesions. The purpose of this study was to determine whether SOD2 provides protection against increased vascular superoxide and endothelial dysfunction in apoE-deficient mice.
