METHOD FOR PREVENTING AND REVERSING ATHEROSCLEROSIS IN MAMMALS

摘要

A method of preventing progression and causing regression of atherosclerosis in a mammal comprises: (a) treating an aliquot of mammalian blood ex-vivo with at least one stressor selected from the group consisting of a temperature above or below body temperature, an electromagnetic emission and an oxidative environment; and (b) administering the aliquot of blood treated in step (a) to the mammal, wherein the aliquot has a volume sufficient to achieve a regression in an existing atherosclerotic lesion in the mammal.
