A Snake Venom-Secreted Phospholipase A<sub>2</sub> Induces Foam Cell Formation Depending on the Activation of Factors Involved in Lipid Homeostasis

<div>MT-III-induced LDs compartmentalize 15-d-PGJ<sub>2</sub> in peritoneal macrophages. Macrophages incubated with RPMI (control) or MT-III (0.4 <i>μ</i>M) for 12 h were labeled for LDs (Nile Red) and for 15-d-PGJ<sub>2</sub> (anti-15-d-PGJ<sub>2</sub> antibody, Enzo Life Sciences). The merged image shows colocalization of 15-d-PGJ<sub>2</sub> to LDs. The pictures are representative of three independent experiments.</div>
