In THP-1-derived macrophages, Lca dramatically increased the expression of PPAR, LXR, and ABCA1 upon LPS challenge, which was consistent with the findings that activation of the PPAR-LXR-ABCA1 pathway achieved an anti-inflammatory effect, and ligands of PPARs caused a substantial reduction of experimental ALI ( 23 , 24 )
GIP, gastric inhibitory polypeptide
The inflammatory state extends to the brain, contributing to conditions such as Alzheimer's disease (a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by progressive memory loss and cognitive decline)
