Reduced expression of endothelial inflammatory markers with HDL from PVS/PCS patients after therapy. Human endothelial EAhy 926 cells were stimulated with 100 µg/mL delipidated HDL protein from PVS/PCS patients before and after therapy for 6 h. The mRNA expression of the inflammatory markers interleukin (IL)-β, Il-6, tumor necrosis factor (Tnf)-α, CC-chemokine ligand (Ccl)-2, vascular cell adhesion molecule (Vcam)-1 and intercellular adhesion molecule (Icam)-1 was determined by real-time PCR. * p < 0.05, ns = not significant. PVS = post-vaccination syndrome, PCS = post-COVID-19 syndrome, HDL = high-density lipoprotein.
