Résumé

During atherogenesis, macrophages turn into foam cells by engulfing lipids present within the atheroma plaques. The shift of foam cells toward proinflammatory or anti-inflammatory phenotypes, a critical step in disease progression, is still poorly understood. LXRs (liver X receptors) play a pivotal role in the macrophage response to lipid, promoting the expression of key genes of cholesterol efflux, mitigating intracellular cholesterol accumulation. LXRs also exert balanced actions on inflammation in human macrophages, displaying both proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory effects.
