High-density lipoprotein prevents SAA-induced production of TNF-α in THP-1 monocytic cells and peripheral blood mononuclear cells
In this study, we evaluated whether human serum and lipoproteins, especially high-density lipoprotein (HDL), affected serum amyloid A (SAA)-induced cytokine release. We verified the effects of SAA on THP-1 cells in serum-free medium compared to medium containing human serum or lipoprotein-deficient...
