Modulation of Sirt1/NF- κB interaction of evogliptin attributed to inhibition of vascular inflammatory response leading to attenuation of atherosclerotic plaque formation.
This study demonstrates that the protective effect of evogliptin on atherosclerotic progression via inhibition of vascular inflammation. The findings imply that evogliptin has potential for anti-atherosclerosis therapy that targets arterial inflammation. PMID: 31421133 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]

TonEBP Suppresses the HO-1 Gene by Blocking Recruitment of Nrf2 to Its Promoter
Discussion Dynamic changes in the functional phenotype of macrophages are associated with pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases (5–7). TonEBP primes macrophages toward an M1 phenotype, which has pro-inflammatory properties. TonEBP does this by promoting expression of pro-inflammatory genes via interaction with NF-κB (36) and by binding directly to the promoter (37, 64). In addition, TonEBP suppresses expression of the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10 by limiting chromatin access to the promoter (37). The pro-inflammatory function of TonEBP suggests that inhibiting its expression or activation could suppres...
