Abstract

A high plasma homocysteine level is a newly regarded risk factor for coronary artery disease. We report a synergistic effect of homocysteine plus cholesterol feeding on further raising total plasma homocysteine, cholesterol and triglycerides levels than each agent alone, which further enhances the risk of coronary artery disease.
