Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Although immune responses drive the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, mechanisms that control antigen-presenting cell (APC)-mediated immune activation in atherosclerosis remain elusive. We here investigated the function of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α in APCs in atherosclerosis. APPROACH AND RESULTS: We found upregulated HIF1α expression in CD11c(+) APCs within atherosclerotic plaques of...
