Identifying Early Inflammatory Changes in Monocyte-Derived Macrophages from a Population with IQ-Discrepant Episodic Memory 2013-05-06 .txt text/plain 5396 268 48 METHODS: This study explored the expression of receptors (CD11b, TLR2 and TLR4) on circulating monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) isolated from healthy elderly adults who we classified as either IQ memory-consistent (high-performing, HP) or IQ memory-discrepant (low-performing, LP). The purpose of the study was to compare the expression of receptors (CD11b, TLR2 and TLR4) on circulating monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) and the response of these cells to LPS in samples prepared from the LP cohort and a cohort which we classified as IQ memory-consistent (high-performing, HP) individuals. P) TLR4 expression on CD11b + MDMs was increased in the LP group compared with the HP group (P,0.05) and this is also shown in the representative dot plots of TLR4 + cells ( and following LPS stimulation [6] , while pro-inflammatory cytokine [52] and chemokine [53, 54] levels are elevated in peripheral blood monocytes isolated from the elderly after LPS stimulation. ./cache/cord-000959-nk2thkme.txt ./txt/cord-000959-nk2thkme.txt
