1 This phenotypic change in CD38-/- CAMs was enhanced by 7-ketocholesterol (7-Ket), an atherogenic stimulus. 7-ketocholesterol CD38 antigen Mus musculus
2 This phenotypic change in CD38-/- CAMs was enhanced by 7-ketocholesterol (7-Ket), an atherogenic stimulus. 7-ketocholesterol CD38 antigen Mus musculus
3 In contrast, the overexpression of Nrf2 gene abolished 7-Ket-induced dedifferentiation in CD38-/- CAMs. 7-ketocholesterol CD38 antigen Mus musculus
4 It was demonstrated that in CD38-/- CAMs, 7-Ket failed to stimulate the production of O2-., while in CD38+/+ CAMs 7-Ket induced marked O2-. 7-ketocholesterol CD38 antigen Mus musculus
5 CONCLUSION: Taken together, these results suggest that CD38 activity is required for 7-Ket-induced Ca2+ and consequently O2-. 7-ketocholesterol CD38 antigen Mus musculus
