LXRα is expressed at higher levels in healthy people compared to atherosclerosis patients and its over-expression polarizes macrophages towards an anti-inflammatory MΦ2 phenotype
Objectives: (1) To investigate the expression patterns of MΦ1 and MΦ2 phenotype markers of peripheral blood monocyte (PBMC)-derived macrophages in atherosclerosis patients and healthy controls, as well as the expression correlation among these genes. (2) To elucidate whether a high level of liver X...
