The effect of soluble RAGE on inhibition of angiotensin II-mediated atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E deficient mice.
The cross talk between RAGE and angiotensin II (AngII) activation may be important in the development of atherosclerosis. Soluble RAGE (sRAGE), a truncated soluble form of the receptor, acts as a decoy and prevents the inflammatory response mediated by RAGE activation. In this study, we sought to de...
