Gene expression and cytokine levels of oxLDL-loaded bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM) treated with PepA. (A) TNFα and IL10 cytokine secretion in supernatant of Wt mouse BMDMs, exposed to oxLDL for 24 hr and, subsequently, treated with or without PepA (4 hr) and LPS (4 hr). (B,C) Gene expression analysis of Tnfα, Ccl2, Cd36, HmG-CoAR and Cyp27a1 measured in Wt mouse BMDMs. Gene expression data are shown relative to DMSO-treated BMDMs. All data represent the mean value of three or four independent experiments (with n = 13-16 per group). Error bars represent ± SEM; *indicates p ≤ 0.05, **p < 0.01 and ***p < 0.001 compared to DMSO-treated bone marrow-derived macrophages by use of two-tailed unpaired t test.
