HDL by the MPO/H2O2/Cl system has functional consequences for classic atheroprotective activities of HDL 61 Figure II-2: HDL protects HUVEC and BAEC from multiple apoptogenic triggers while MPO-oxidized HDL fails to do so 62 Figure II-3: Exposure of HDL to the MPO oxidant system inhibits the anti- apoptotic activity of the particle as monitored by loss of capacity to both inhibit caspase-3 activity and induce eNOS activity 64 Figure II-4: HDL oxidized by physiologically relevant levels MPO-generated oxidants inhibits the anti-inflammatory activity of the particle in HUVEC and
