Nucleotides released by apoptotic cells act as a find-me signal to promote phagocytic clearance

TL;DR: Nucleotides are identified as a critical find-me cue released by apoptotic cells to promote P2Y2-dependent recruitment of phagocytes, and provide evidence for a clear relationship between a find- me signal and efficient corpse clearance in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Monoclonal autoantibodies specific for oxidized phospholipids or oxidized phospholipid-protein adducts inhibit macrophage uptake of oxidized low-density lipoproteins.

TL;DR: The cloned monoclonal IgM autoantibodies which bind to epitopes of oxidized low-density lipoprotein from apoE-deficient mice suggest that oxidized phospholipid epitopes, present either as lipids or as lipid-protein adducts, represent one class of ligands involved in the recognition of OxLDL by macrophages.
Journal ArticleDOI

The role of oxidized phospholipids in atherosclerosis

TL;DR: There is increasing evidence that oxidized phospholipids (OxPLs) play an important role in atherosclerosis. as mentioned in this paper showed that OxPL/apolipoprotein B has been shown to be a prognostic indicator and a separate risk factor for coronary events.
Journal ArticleDOI

Induction of Heme Oxygenase-1 Inhibits the Monocyte Transmigration Induced by Mildly Oxidized LDL

TL;DR: It is suggested that HO-1 induced by mildly oxidized LDL may protect against the induction of inflammatory responses in artery wall cells through the production of the antioxidants biliverdin and bilirubin.
