Participation of plasma lipoprotein receptors in EgAgB binding to monocytes. THP-1 monocytes were pre-incubated with HDL and LDL (500 μg/ml), centrifuged and then incubated with biotinylated EgAgB (20, 50 100 and 250 μg/ml). Results are expressed as binding indexes and correspond to mean values ± SEM of three independent experiments. Asterisks (*) indicate significant differences with respect to the control incubated without lipoproteins, according to analysis by REML test employing JMP software
