Loss of ABCG1 influences regulatory T cell differentiation and atherosclerosis [PDF]

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2016
ATP-binding cassette transporter G1 (ABCG1) promotes cholesterol accumulation and alters T cell homeostasis, which may contribute to progression of atherosclerosis. Here, we investigated how the selective loss of ABCG1 in T cells impacts atherosclerosis in LDL receptor-deficient (LDLR-deficient) mice, a model of the disease.

The cholesterol transporter ABCG1 modulates the subcellular distribution and proteolytic processing of β-amyloid precursor protein

Journal of Lipid Research, 2007
Although intracellular cholesterol levels are known to influence the proteolysis of β-amyloid precursor protein (APP), the effect of specific genes that regulate cholesterol metabolism on APP processing remains poorly understood.

Dual Functions of Dietary Rubber Seed Oil Supplementation: Enriching N‐3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Enhancing Antioxidant Capacity in Pekin Ducks

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Dietary RSO supplementation improved growth performance, simultaneously enriched n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n‐3 PUFA), and enhanced antioxidant capacity in Pekin ducks, which suggested that RSO has the potential to be a novel n‐3 PUFA source and an antioxidant for Pekin ducks to generate animal functional foods.

Nanomaterial‐based immune therapeutic strategies in neurodegenerative diseases

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This review highlights the immunomodulatory potential of nanomaterials (NMs) in treating neurodegenerative diseases (NDs). It focuses on their roles in regulating innate and adaptive immune responses to maintain immune homeostasis. By providing insights into these mechanisms, the review lays the groundwork for innovative NMs therapeutic strategies to ...

ABCG1 as a potential oncogene in lung cancer

Experimental and Therapeutic Medicine, 2017
ATP-binding cassette transporter G1 (ABCG1) is a member of the ABC transporter family and regulates cellular cholesterol homeostasis. It has important roles in cholesterol homeostasis and tumor immunity, which has, however, not been reported in lung cancer. The present study showed that ABCG1 protein is upregulated in lung cancer compared with adjacent

Sphingomyelin-dependence of cholesterol efflux mediated by ABCG1s⃞

Journal of Lipid Research, 2007
ABCG1, one of the half-type ATP binding cassette (ABC) proteins, mediates the efflux of cholesterol to HDL and functions in the reverse cholesterol transport from peripheral cells to the liver.

TSPO ligands promote cholesterol efflux and suppress oxidative stress and inflammation in choroidal endothelial cells [PDF]

, 2018
Choroidal endothelial cells supply oxygen and nutrients to retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells and photoreceptors, recycle metabolites, and dispose of metabolic waste through the choroidal blood circulation.

The Role of Obesity in the Association Between Alcohol Consumption and HDL‐c Levels: Baependi Heart Study

Lipids, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are a leading cause of global mortality, with dyslipidemia playing a central role in their pathogenesis. The influence of alcohol consumption on lipid profiles, particularly high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL‐c), in relation to obesity status remains insufficiently explored.

Adrenal Abcg1 Controls Cholesterol Flux and Steroidogenesis

Endocrinology
Abstract Cholesterol is the precursor of all steroids, but how cholesterol flux is controlled in steroidogenic tissues is poorly understood. The cholesterol exporter ABCG1 is an essential component of the reverse cholesterol pathway and its global inactivation results in neutral lipid redistribution to tissue macrophages. The function of
