TREM-1 Modulates Dendritic Cells Maturation and Dendritic Cell-Mediated T-Cell Activation Induced by ox-LDL

Figure 7

miRNA-155/SOCS1 signaling pathways were involved in the effect of TREM-1 and ox-LDL. (a) Expression of miRNAs in DCs was tested by RT-PCR. The value was normalized as a fold change to that of nontreated DC samples. (b-c) DCs were transfected with miRNA-155 inhibitor or mimic, respectively, and stimulated with ox-LDL. SOCS1 level in DCs were detected by Western blot (b) and RT-PCR (c). Results represent the of seven experiments. , compared with control cells; , compared with ox-LDL-treated cells.
