Protein carbamylation in atherosclerotic plaques correlates with uremia and disease progression, localizing predominantly to foam cells
IntroductionCarbamylation is a non-enzymatic post-translational protein modification common in patients with uremia that causes pro-atherogenic alterations in plasma proteins. It is abundantly present in late-stage atherosclerotic plaques; however, the…
