Diltiazem Inhibit Differention and Maturation of Dendritic Cells in Peripheral Blood by Enzymatically Modified LDL / 中国药房

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of enzymatically modified low density lipoprotein(E-LDL) on differation and maturation of human dendritic cells(DC) in peripheral blood and the effect of diltiazem on it.METHODS: Human monocytes were isolated by using gradient centrifugation method and cultured in DC Cellgro medium containing rhGM-CSF and rhIL-4 for 5 days,then DC was then obtained.DC were treated with E-LDL or E-LDL plus diltiazem for 48 hours,the morphological changes were observed under the microscope,and the FACS was used to investigate the expression of DC(CD1a,CD80,CD86 and HLA-DR).PBS group was set up for comparison.RESULTS: The morphological changes were nor observed.The expressions of CD1a,CD80,CD86 and HLA-DR in each groups were significant different(P
