We have recently read with great interest the report by Mollace V and colleges [1] concerning" Oxidized LDL attenuates protective autophagy and induces apoptotic cell death of endothelial cells: Role of oxidative stress and LOX-1 receptor expression." They indicate that oxidized-low density lipoproteins leads to impaired NO generation and apoptotic cell death in endothelial cells. This effect occurs via the overexpression of LOX-1 and subsequent attenuation of protective autophagic response thereby contributing to the pathophysiology of oxidized-low density lipoproteins-induced endothelial dysfunction which characterizes early stages of atherosclerotic process.
