Macrophagic Sclerostin Loop2‐ApoER2 Interaction Required by Sclerostin for Cardiovascular Protective Action

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sclerostin loop2‐ApoER2 interaction in macrophages is required by sclerostin to suppress NF‐κB nuclear translocation and phosphorylation, to promote macrophage conversion into anti‐inflammatory subtypes in atherosclerotic aortas, as well as to prevent atherosclerosis and aortic aneurysm development in ApoE−/− mice. Abstract Therapeutic antibody against

Presence of two forms of apolipoprotein B in patients with dyslipoproteinemia.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1983
Current information suggests that the major forms of the human B apolipoproteins, B-100 and B-48, are under separate genetic control and are synthesized by the liver and intestine, respectively. The apolipoprotein B composition of plasma lipoproteins has

Complement activation and protein adsorption by carbon nanotubes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
As a first step to validate the use of carbon nanotubes as novel vaccine or drug delivery devices, their interaction with a part of the human immune system, complement, has been explored.

Polyphenol diet and exercise as neuroprotective factors in a Drosophila model of Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Moderate exercise and low‐dose ellagic acid supplementation improved motor performance, learning, and longevity in a transgenic Drosophila model of Alzheimer's disease. Both interventions showed hormetic effects—that is, beneficial at low levels, but detrimental at higher intensities or doses.

Description of two different patients with abetalipoproteinemia: synthesis of a normal-sized apolipoprotein B-48 in intestinal organ culture.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1990
We describe here two patients, M. P. and S. L., with recessive abetalipoproteinemia. Analysis of restriction fragments of DNA from both patients using cDNA probes spanning the entire apolipoprotein B gene revealed no major insertions or deletions ...

Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-binding protein is carried on lipoproteins and acts as a cofactor in the neutralization of LPS. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Lipoproteins isolated from normal human plasma can bind and neutralize bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and may represent an important mechanism in host defense against gram-negative septic shock. Recent studies have shown that experimentally elevating

Generating golden Syrian hamsters with conditional alleles via zygote microinjection of CRISPR/Cas9

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We established the first conditional knockout (cKO) model in the golden Syrian hamster by CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated genome editing. Cas9 protein, two sgRNAs, and a donor plasmid carrying loxP‐flanked exon 2 of the ApoF gene were microinjected into one‐cell embryos. The floxed allele was efficiently generated (up to 27%) and transmitted through the germline.

Effects of ezetimibe and simvastatin on apolipoprotein B metabolism in males with mixed hyperlipidemia

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2009
Sixteen hyperlipidemic men were enrolled in a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, cross-over study to evaluate the effect of ezetimibe 10 mg and simvastatin 40 mg, coadministered and alone, on the in vivo kinetics of apolipoprotein (apo) B-48 ...

Hepatitis C virus relies on lipoproteins for its life cycle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infects over 150 million people worldwide. In most cases, HCV infection becomes chronic causing liver disease ranging from fibrosis to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma.
