BACKGROUND: @entity731 represents the principal cause of @entity204 in the many societies. Since few data have been published about the composition of @entity1718 in @entity731 arteries such as the aorta comparing to the non affected internal mammary artery which is used for aortocoronary bypass grafting, we compared the @entity844 profiles of @entity731 aorta and internal mammary arteries in @entity1 individuals. METHODS: Twenty-one angiographically documented @entity453 ( @entity453 ) @entity1 who were admitted to the open heart surgery division enrolled in this study. They were operated electively for coronary artery bypass grafting surgery (CABG). Small segments of ascending aorta and internal mammary arteries were sampled during open heart surgery. The samples were subjected to lipid extraction and @entity844 analysis by high performance liquid chromatography. RESULTS: The results showed that different @entity844 profiles were seen in the aorta and internal mammary arteries. The @entity731 aorta contained lower amounts of @entity1474 (including trans isomer of @entity3952 ) and higher proportions of saturated fats comparing to the internal mammary. In the aorta also, the amounts of omega6 series of @entity1718 were more and levels of omega3 fats were less than the internal mammary. CONCLUSION: This study suggests that modification of @entity1718 may play a role during atherogenesis.
