What is the stimulating or aggravating factor in this whole situation? I sincerely believe it is the free radical which creates an altered blueprint (DNA) within the cell. As we will soon see, the free radical can be produced by many factors but here is how it does its dirty work.

In figure 4 we see the free radical, a chemical buzz bomb which has the ability to penetrate the DNA of the cell. Once the DNA has been penetrated the change in the blueprint in the cell can produce an altered cell.

Although such alterations may be small, the cell division which takes place after that sets the stage for possible replication of a dangerous kind. Figure 5 [at right] shows the beginning of the cell division in the muscular inner layer of the artery.
