Relative cellular miR155-5p expression is higher in M1 stimulation phenotypes. To examine the effects of monocyte/macrophage stimulation, we compared relative cellular miR155-5p expression levels in the various monocyte/macrophage groups to monocytes cultured without stimulant (A: CD14 vs. No stimulant; B: LPS vs. No stimulant; C: IFNɣ vs. No stimulant; D: IL4 vs. No stimulant; E: TGFβ1 vs. No stimulant). Data presented are based on quantitative polymerase chain reaction measurements of miR155-5p in monocyte/macrophages of the total patient cohort (n = 26) with high (CFIp > 0.39) or low (CFIp < 0.39) collateral capacity. Data are presented as mean ± SD. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001. CFIp: Collateral flow index; LPS: Lipopolysaccharide; IFNɣ: Interferon gamma; IL4: Interleukin 4; TGFβ1: Transforming growth factor beta 1.
