Abstract:
Objective To explain the effects of C-reactive protein(CRP) on lectin-like oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor-1 expression on THP-1 derived macrophages and the related signal transduction pathways.MethodsTHP-1 cells were differentiated into macrophages with the stimulation of PMA.THP-1 derived macrophages were incubated with CRP and co-incubated with inhibitors of NF-?B、AP-1 and MARK signal transduction pathways.The expression of LOX-1 antigen and mRNA was analyzed by ELISA and RT-PCR.Results CRP stimulated the expression of LOX-1 antigen and mRNA on macrophages in a dose-dependent manner.NF-?B inhibitor BAY11-7085 suppressed the inducible effects of CRP on LOX-1 expression.Conclusion CRP increased LOX-1 expression on THP-1 derived macrophages at transcription and post-transcription levels.The NF-?B signal transduction pathway may be involved in such process.
