The intramuscular administration of polymerized type I collagen (PTIC) for adult symptomatic COVID-19 outpatients downregulated hyperinflammation and improved symptoms. We inferred that LAIR1 is a potential receptor for PTIC. Thus, a binding assay and surface plasmon resonance binding assay were performed to estimate the affinity of the interaction between LAIR1 and PTIC. M1 macrophages derived from THP-1 cells were cultured with 2-10% PTIC for 24 h. Lysates from PTIC-treated THP-1 cells, macrophage-like cells (MLCs), M1, M1 + IFN-γ, and M1 + LPS were analyzed by Western blot for NF-κB (p65), p38, STAT1, and pSTAT1 (tyrosine
