Abstract:The formation of macrophage–derived foam cells has been recognized as the pathological hallmark of atherosclerotic diseases. However, the pathological evolution dynamics and underlying regulatory mechanisms remain largely unknown. Herein, we introduce a single–particle rotational microrheology method for pathological staging of macrophage foaming and antiatherosclerotic explorations by probing the dynamic changes of lysosomal viscous feature over the pathological evolution progression. The principle of this me… Show more
