The Reducing Effects of Pyrogallol-Phloroglucinol-6,6-Bieckol on High-Fat Diet-Induced Pyroptosis in Endothelial and Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells of Mice Aortas

In hyperlipidemia, pyroptosis in endothelial cells (ECs) induces atherosclerosis via the toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) pathway. We evaluated the effects of Ecklonia cava extract (ECE) and pyrogallol-phloroglucinol-6,6-bieckol (PPB) on pyroptosis of ECs and vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs), which l...
