The macrophage with oxLDL conditioned medium enhanced the expression of inflammatory cytokines and chemoattractant proteins, as well as VEGF in cultured ARPE19 cells.

(A). OxPLs stimulate the expression of Wnt3A in J774 macrophages (B). Relative mRNA levels were calculated by normalizing results with GAPDH and are expressed relative to untreated samples. n = 4. Data are shown as mean ± SEM. *P (C) Representative Western blots image. (D) Relative levels of β-catenin and phospho-β-catenin proteins normalized to GAPDH. (E) The ratio of phospho-beta-Catenin to total beta-Catenin protein. N = 3; means ± standard deviations are shown. P values tested against control are indicated. n.s., non-significant.
