Abstract 15508: Development of a Small Peptide-Based Molecular Imaging Probe Targeting LOX-1 for Noninvasive Identification of Atherosclerotic Plaque

Objective: The oxidized low density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) receptor, LOX-1, mediates the initiation, progression, and destabilization of atherosclerotic plaques, and may be an ideal target for molecu...
