TREM-1 Modulates Dendritic Cells Maturation and Dendritic Cell-Mediated T-Cell Activation Induced by ox-LDL
Figure 8
TREM-1 expression in DCs from symptomatic and asymptomatic patients with carotid stenosis and SOCS1 signaling pathways were involved in the effect of TREM-1 and ox-LDL on DCs from patients with carotid stenosis. (a) The mRNA and protein of TREM-1 expression in DCs from symptomatic were higher than from asymptomatic patients with carotid stenosis; (b) DCs were generated from peripheral blood monocytes of patients who underwent carotid endarterectomy. miR-155 and SOCS1 mRNA expression were determined by RT-PCR. , compared with control cells; , compared with ox-LDL-treated cells.
