Oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein Induces Inflammatory Responses in Cultured Human Mast Cells Via Toll-Like Receptor 4

Oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein Induces Inflammatory Responses in Cultured Human Mast Cells Via Toll-Like Receptor 4

Background/Aims: Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) is a powerful atherogen. Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) has a pathophysiological role in regulating inflammatory responses and atherosclerosis. Mast cells can infiltrate into the atheromatous plaque and secrete various pro-inflammatory cytokine...
