Scripps scientists link ozone to atherosclerosis

study. "Within themselves, they have no diagnostic value, and they don't change what we do after the procedure."

Wentworth and Lerner tested this sample, and the results proved promising. They found some abnormalities that could be associated with the presence of ozone in these plaques. But they wanted to be sure. So DeLaria and his fellow vascular surgeon Ralph Dilley, M.D., provided several more samples.

When Lerner, Wentworth, and their colleagues studied the atherosclerotic plaque samples, they found the evidence they were looking for. The atheronals--signature products that were produced when the highly reactive ozone mixed with cholesterol--were evident in the plaques. This suggests that ozone production occurred as these plaques were being formed.
