Effects of HOTAIR overexpression on lipid uptake and inflammatory response in macrophage-derived foam cells. A: qRT-PCR analysis of HOTAIR expression in macrophage-derived foam cells transfected with HOTAIR overexpression vector or control vector. B and C: ELISA measurements of TNF-α and IL-6 production in macrophage-derived foam cells transfected with HOTAIR overexpression vector or control vector. D and E: Oil Red O staining showing lipid uptake in macrophage-derived foam cells transfected with HOTAIR overexpression vector or control vector. Note: The expression levels were normalized to appropriate reference genes, and statistical significance was determined using Student's t-test (*P<0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.001). Error bars represent standard deviation.
