Figure 3. Activating mCD36 mAb induces TNF-α and RANTES mRNA expression.
RAW Blue cells and peritoneal macrophages were incubated with indicated reagents including activating mCD36 mAb for 18 h. Activating mCD36 mAb-induced TNF-α (C) and RANTES (D) mRNA expression in apoE−/− (WT), apoE−/−CD36−/− (CD36−/−), and apoE−/−SR-A (SR-A−/−) were determined by quantitative RT-PCR. Cells treated with media and oxLDL were used as controls. Error bars represent mean ± SD. Data are representative of three independent experiments.
