Abstract

This study represents the evidence linking L5-LDL and the inflammatory cytokine IL-1β in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). We elucidate the molecular mechanism underlying L5-LDL-induced production of IL-1β in macrophages. The results showed that L5-LDL induced activation of caspase-1 and NF-κB through the lectin-type oxidized LDL receptor (LOX-1)-dependent pathway, leading to the production of IL-1β.
