Figure Lengend Snippet: Hematoxylin & eosin staining of the tumor and corresponding peritumoral liver tissues ( A , B , C and D ). The LRP1 staining was mostly detected in the cell membrane of tumor cells, stromal cells and peritumoral liver cells( E , F , G and H ). The expression of LRP1 protein had great variation in different tumor samples ( F and H ). the MMP9 protein was located in cytoplasm of tumor cells, peritumoral liver cells, stromal fibroblasts and inflammatory cells ( I , J , K and L ). Representative cases were listed. Patient 1 had high LRP1 expression and low expression of MMP9 (F and J), and patient 2 showed low LRP1 expression and high MMP9 expression in tumor tissue (H and L). The graph showed that the level of LRP1 protein expression was significantly down-regulated in tumors compared to that in the corresponding peritumoral liver tissues ( M ). A scatter plot showed that LRP1 protein expression in 40 tumor tissues blindly chosen from 327 cases of HCC was consistent with that of LRP1 mRNA (N). Scale bars: 100 µm.

doi: 10.3389/fimmu.2022.991790

Figure Lengend Snippet: lrp8 is the most dominant receptor expressed on activated T cells and blocking lrp8 enhanced T-cell activation. (A) Expression of apoE receptors shows predominance of ldlr and lrp8 receptors on T cells, (B) lrp8, ldl and lrp1 receptors on dendritic cells, and (C) lrp1 receptors on macrophages as shown by quantitative real-time PCR (qPCR). Expression of ldlr and lrp8 was upregulated following T cell stimulation with CD3/CD28 beads. Expression of lrp8 was also upregulated following dendritic cell stimulation with TLR7/8. (D) The amount of IFNγ production from vaccinated splenocytes co-cultured with immunogenic WT B16 cells was quantified by ELISA assay. Results show that IFNγ production was significantly suppressed in the presence of the apoE agonist COG133, but suppression did not occur when splenocytes were harvested from lrp8 -/- mice. These findings suggest that T-cell function is at least partially inhibited by apoE through the lrp8 receptor pathway. Results are expressed as mean score ± SD. *p<0.05; **p<0.005; ***p<0.001, determined by unpaired two-tailed Student’s t-test.
