Does the inhibition of lipoprotein-associated phospholipase A2 exert beneficial effects against atherosclerosis in LDLR-deficient mice?
Inhibition of lp-PLA2 by darapladib decreases the inflammatory burden and atherosclerotic plaque formation in LDLR-deficient mice, which may be a new strategy for the treatment of atherosclerosis.
We demonstrated that R-11 is likely a B-cell tropic agent which can restore both cellular and humoral immune responses in immunocompromised mice and may have a potential to be applied in therapy of immunocompromised patients.
