Protein Sulfhydryl Group Oxidation and Mixed-Disulfide Modifications in Stable and Unstable Human Carotid Plaques

Objectives. Oxidative stress has been implicated in the outcome of atherosclerotic plaques. However, at present, no data are available neither on the degree of plaque protein sulfhydryl groups oxidation nor on its relationship with plaque vulnerability. We investigated the entity of protein-SH oxid...
