![Western Blot: ABCA1 Antibody - BSA Free [NB400-105] - Gas6 treatment enhances expression of LXR alpha & LXR beta & their target genes in BMDM.Mouse BMDM were stimulated with 400 ng/ml Gas6, 1 μM T0901317, 10 ng/ml interferon (IFN)-gamma , 10 ng/ml IL-4, or 100 ng/ml LPS for 4 h (a,b) or 400 ng/ml Gas6 for the indicated times (c–g). (a,b,e) The amounts of the LXR alpha , LXR beta , ABCA1, ABCG1, ApoE, AIM, Arg2, VEGF, YM1, & Arg1 mRNAs were analyzed by real-time PCR & normalized to that of Hprt mRNA. (c,d,f,g) The relative abundances of LXR alpha , LXR beta , ABCA1, ABCG1, ApoE, Aim, Arg2, & VEGF proteins were determined by Western blotting analysis. The relative densitometric intensity was determined for each band & normalized to beta -actin. Data in all bar graphs are means ± SEM of three independent experiments. *P < 0.05 compared with control.

J774A.1 murine macrophages were cultured with 1 μM TO-091317 or 50 μg/ml Cu2+-oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL) in the absence or presence of 1–10 μg/ml PPE. For the measurement of expression of (A & B) ABCA1 & (C) LXR alpha , total cell lysates were subjected to western blot analysis with a primary antibody against ABCA1 or LXR alpha . beta -actin was used as an internal control. Bar graphs (means ± SEM, n=3) represent quantitative densitometric results of the upper bands. Bar graphs denoted without a common letter indicate significant difference, P<0.05.
