1 | METHODS: The present study investigates the influence of prolonged treatment with GW9508 - agonist of FFAR1 and FFAR4 - on the development of atherosclerosis plaque in apoE-knockout mice, using morphometric and molecular methods. | GW9508 | free fatty acid receptor 1 | Mus musculus |
2 | CONCLUSIONS: Prolonged administration of GW9508 resulted in significant amelioration of atherogenesis, providing evidence that the strategy based on macrophage phenotype switching toward an M2-like activation state via stimulation of FFAR1/FFAR4 receptors holds promise for a new approach to the prevention or treatment of atherosclerosis. | GW9508 | free fatty acid receptor 1 | Mus musculus |
