Apolipoprotein A-1 Binding Protein Inhibits Inflammatory Signaling Pathways by Binding to Apolipoprotein A-1 in THP-1 Macrophages

摘要

Background: It has previously been demonstrated that apolipoprotein A-1 (apoA-1) binding protein (AIBP) promotes apoA-1 binding to ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) and prevents ABCA1 protein degradation so as to inhibit foam cell formation. Because apoA-1 inhibits inflammatory signaling pathways, whether AIBP has an inhibitory effect on inflammatory signaling pathways in THP-1-derived macrophages is investigated.
