CD4 + LAP + and CD4 + CD25 + Foxp3 + Regulatory T Cells Induced by Nasal Oxidized Low-Density Lipoprotein Suppress Effector T Cells Response and Attenuate Atherosclerosis in ApoE −/− Mice
Yucheng Zhong,Xiang Wang,Qingwei Ji,Xiaobo Mao,Hongxia Tang,Guiwen Yi,Kai Meng,Xiao-fang Yang,Qiutang Zeng +8 more
TL;DR: It is found that nasal oxLDL drastically ameliorate the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis and neutralization of TGF-β in vivo partially counteracted the protective effect of nasal ox LDL treatment, indicating that the presence of T GF-β was indispensable to CD4+LAP+ Tregs andCD4+CD25+Foxp3+ T Regs to acquire regulatory properties.

Kunwu Yu,Pengfei Zhu,Qian Dong,Yucheng Zhong,Zhengfeng Zhu,Yingzhong Lin,Ying Huang,Kai Meng,Qingwei Ji,Guiwen Yi,Wei Zhang,Bangwei Wu,Yi Mao,Peng Cheng,Xiaoqi Zhao,Xiaobo Mao,Qiutang Zeng +16 more
TL;DR: A protective role for TSLP in Atherosclerosis is revealed that is possibly mediated by reestablishing a tolerogenic immune response, which may represent a novel possibility for treatment or prevention of atherosclerosis.

The Long Noncoding RNA Hotair Regulates Oxidative Stress and Cardiac Myocyte Apoptosis during Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury.
Kai Meng,Jiao Jiao,Ruirui Zhu,Boyuan Wang,Xiaobo Mao,Yucheng Zhong,Zhengfeng Zhu,Kunwu Yu,Yan Ding,Wenbin Xu,Jian Yu,Qiutang Zeng,Yudong Peng +12 more
TL;DR: The evidence is provided that endogenous lncRNA Hotair is an essential negative regulator for oxidative stress and cardiac myocyte apoptosis in myocardial I/R injury, which is dependent on AMPKα activation via the EZH2/miR-451/Cab39 axis.
The potential role of IL-37 in atherosclerosis.
TL;DR: IL-37 may play a protective role in atherosclerosis through inhibition of inflammatory cytokines production and suppression of macrophage and DC activation.
