Puerarin Inhibits oxLDL-Induced Macrophage Activation and Foam Cell Formation in Human THP1 Macrophage

Figure 1

Effect of puerarin on the protein expression of CD36 in human THP1 macrophages. Incubation of oxLDL (50 μg/mL) for 24 hours significantly increased the protein expression of CD36, and puerarin dose-dependently reduced CD36 expression. Pue: puerarin. Data is expressed as mean ± SEM. versus control, versus oxLDL. to 6.
