Familial dysbetalipoproteinemia: highly atherogenic and underdiagnosed disorder

Кардиоваскулярная терапия и профилактика, 2021
Familial dysbetalipoproteinemia (FD) is a genetic, highly atherogenic disorder. The penetrance of FD depends on the patient’s lifestyle and concomitant diseases. Despite the fact that FD was described almost half a century ago, it is still insufficiently

Functional Hydrogel for Modulating Lipid Droplets and Neuroinflammation in Head Injury

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
After TBI, elevated cholesterol levels in activated microglia lead to the accumulation of cholesterol esters in lipid droplets, exacerbating neuroinflammation. A β‐cyclodextrin‐conjugated GelMA (βCD‐GelMA) hydrogel is developed to promotes cholesterol efflux and reduces LDL influx, thereby alleviating intracellular cholesterol and lipid droplet buildup.

Semisynthesis and segmental isotope labeling of the apoE3 N-terminal domain using expressed protein ligation

Journal of Lipid Research, 2009
Apolipoprotein E (apoE) is an exchangeable apolipoprotein that functions as a ligand for members of the LDL receptor family, promoting lipoprotein clearance from the circulation. Productive receptor binding requires that apoE adopt an LDL receptor-active

IgG anti-apolipoprotein A-1 antibodies in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus are associated with disease activity and corticosteroid therapy: an observational study. [PDF]

, 2015
IgG anti-apolipoprotein A-1 (IgG anti-apoA-1) antibodies are present in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and may link inflammatory disease activity and the increased risk of developing atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in ...

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

Bioprinted Micro‐Clots for Kinetic Analysis of Endothelial Cell‐Mediated Fibrinolysis

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 7, March 14, 2025.
This paper describes the development of a microscale model that quantifies the breakdown of fibrin by endothelial cells. The small size scale of this engineered system enables fibrin breakdown to be observed without the addition of external activators. This system could help in identifying compounds which both promote and hinder thrombosis.

Apolipoprotein E is secreted by cultured lipocytes of the rat liver.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1991
Hepatic lipocytes, the retinoid-storing cells of the liver, share several characteristics with vascular smooth muscle cells. To determine whether they also share the characteristic of apolipoprotein E secretion, we have compared the relative mRNA ...
