Figure Lengend Snippet: ( A ) Cultured TECs exposed to IsoLG-apoAI showed higher expression of ABCA1 and SRBI versus apoAI. ( B ) TECs took up more IsoLG-apoAI versus apoAI. Scale bar: 50 μm. Knockdown of either ABCA1 or SRBI ( C and D ) reduced TEC uptake of apoAI but not IsoLG-apoAI. ( E ) In TECs exposed to apoAI, knockdown of ABCA1 or SRBI decreased expression of the other transporter. ( F ) In TECs exposed to IsoLG-apoAI, ABCA1 knockdown significantly increased SRBI expression. SRBI siRNA significantly increased ABCA1 expression. ( G ) Knockdown of both ABCA1 and SRBI reduced cellular uptake IsoLG-apoAI. In vitro, experiments were performed independently 3 times with 3 wells per treatment. Data represent mean ± SEM. Overall statistical difference determined by Kruskal-Wallis test and pairwise difference by Wilcoxon rank sum test followed by Bonferroni correction on P values. * P < 0.05, ** P < 0.01, *** P < 0.001.
Article Snippet: Sections with primary Abs were incubated overnight at 4°C by adding rabbit anti-mouse ABCA1 Ab (1:200; Novus Biologicals), rabbit anti-mouse SRBI Ab (1:200; Novus Biologicals), and rabbit anti-mouse ABCG1 Ab (1:200; Novus Biologicals).
