Upregulation of VCAM1 is also reported in BECs activated by C3a/C3aR signaling, causing vascular dysfunction and age-associated neurodegeneration (Propson et al., 2021)
Sample sections were blocked in 5 % goat serum with 0.3 % Triton X-100 for 1 h at RT and then incubated overnight at 4 C with the following primary antibodies: mouse anti-GLP-1R (1:50, Santa Cruz, CA, USA), mouse anti-GLP-1(1:50, Santa Cruz, CA, USA), rabbit anti-Iba1 (1:500, Wako Chemicals, Tokyo, Japan), rabbit anti-GFAP (1:200, Cell Signalling, Boston, MA, USA), rabbit anti-NeuN (1:100, Proteintech, China), mouse anti-CGRP (1:100, Santa Cruz, CA, USA), and mouse anti-c-fos (1:100, Santa Cruz, CA, USA)
According to the researchers, there are several mechanisms that may explain why GLP-1 receptor agonists were associated with these reductions among people with HS
