Abstract: | AIM: To investigate the effect of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) on the expression of endothelial lipase (EL) in murine RAW264.7 macrophages. METHODS: RAW264.7 cells were incubated with ox-LDL at concentrations of 0~100 mg/L for 24 h.On the other hand, the cells were incubated with or without PDTC (NF-κB inhibitor) for 30 min and then with ox-LDL (50 mg/L) for 24 h. The expression of EL and p65 was detected by Western blotting. RESULTS: The level of EL was significantly increased after ox-LDL incubation in RAW264.7 cells (P<0.05). NF-κB was activated by ox-LDL at concentration of 50 mg/L for 15~30 min in RAW264.7 cells. The increase in EL induced by ox-LDL was markedly inhibited by a NF-κB inhibitor PDTC (P<0.05). CONCLUSION: ox-LDL significantly increases the expression of EL in RAW264.7 macrophages, which is possibly related to NF-κB activation. |
