Statins are first-line pharmacotherapeutic agents for hypercholesterolemia treatment in humans. However the effects of statins in animal models of atherosclerosis are not very consistent. Thus we wanted to evaluate whether atorvastatin possesses hypolipidemic and anti-inflammatory effects in mice lacking apolipoprotein E/low-density lipoprotein receptor (apoE/LDLR-deficient mice). Two-month-old female...
We have previously shown that glucocorticoids induce the expression of MAP kinase phosphatase (Mkp) a -1 in innate immune cells. Since Mkp-1 is a critical negative regulator of the innate immune response, we hypothesize that Mkp-1 plays a significant role in the anti-inflammatory action of glucocorticoids. The specific aim of the present study is to understand the role of Mkp-1 in the anti-inflammatory...
