Lysophosphatidylcholine induces NLRP3 inflammasome-mediated foam cell formation and pyroptosis in human monocytes and endothelial cells
Foam cells are specialized lipid-loaded macrophages derived from monocytes and are a key pathological feature of atherosclerotic lesions. Lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) is a major lipid component of the plasma membrane with a broad spectrum of proinflammatory activities and plays a key role in athero...
