Popis: The appearance of the arterial endothelium of rabbits which had been fed cholesterol is examined by scanning (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Attention is drawn to the large number of circulating cells attached to the endothelial surface and the number of these as seen by TEM which appear to be penetrating into the intima. It is proposed that these penetrating cells form an important component of cholesterol-induced fatty streaks in the rabbit.
