with these data from a relatively early lesion in the development of the atherosclerotic fibrous plaque , we conclude that : 1 ) both ldl and hdl can accumulate in the lipid-rich core region since no preferential staining for apo b over apo a was observed in this region , and 2 ) the paucity of cell-associated apo a staining in small fibrolipid lesions suggests that hdl interacts with the arterial wall differently than does hdl .
