Oxidized Low‐Density Lipoprotein (OxLDL)–Treated Dendritic Cells Promote Activation of T Cells in Human Atherosclerotic Plaque and Blood, Which Is Repressed by Statins: microRNA let‐7c Is Integral to the Effect
BACKGROUND: Activated T cells and dendritic cells (DCs) are colocalized in atherosclerotic plaques in association with plaque rupture. Oxidized low‐density lipoprotein (oxLDL) promotes immune activation and inflammation. We studied the effects of statins (atorvastatin and simvastatin) on human DC ma...
