Abstract
TGRLP interactions with the endothelium may increase the likelihood th at a suppressed fibrinolytic capacity and/or an increased procoagulant activity enhances the risk for an ischemic event, that is, for the pr oduction of a focal thrombus. The cellular mechanisms and characterist ics of TGRLP in hyperlipemia and in the postprandial state that contri bute to their potential pathology in IHD are considered.
