Molecular characterization of two monoclonal antibodies specific for the LDL receptor-binding site of human apolipoprotein E.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1995
Apolipoprotein E (apoE), a 299 amino acid protein, is a ligand for the low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLr). It has been established that basic amino acids situated between apoE residues 136 and 150 participate in the interaction of apoE with the LDLr.

INSULIN AND ATHEROSCLEROSIS

open access: yesThe Lancet, 1969
The idea that excessive concentrations of insulin might contribute to the development of atherosclerosis appeared in the mid 1960s and the evidence was first reviewed in a paper published in 1969 [1]. Since then, data, both clinical and experimental, has continued to accumulate, most of it supportive of the hypothesis, although some of the details have

Targeting inflammation to reduce cardiovascular disease risk: a realistic clinical prospect? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Data from basic science experiments is overwhelmingly supportive of the causal role of immune-inflammatory response(s) at the core of atherosclerosis, and therefore the theoretical potential to manipulate the inflammatory response to prevent ...

Dataset on inflammatory proteins expressions and sialic acid levels in apolipoprotein E-deficient mice with administration of N-acetylneuraminic acid and/or quercetin

open access: yesData in Brief, 2016
The data presented in this article describe an effect of N-acetylneuraminic acid and/or quercetin on the inflammatory proteins expressions (TNF-α, ICAM-1, VCAM-1 and MOMA-2) and the N-acetylneuraminic acid (NANA) levels of apolipoprotein E-deficient mice

Inhibition of Nuclear Factor of Activated T-Cells (NFAT) Suppresses Accelerated Atherosclerosis in Diabetic Mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY: Diabetic patients have a much more widespread and aggressive form of atherosclerosis and therefore, higher risk for myocardial infarction, peripheral vascular disease and stroke, but the molecular mechanisms leading to accelerated

Atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 2000
Atherosclerosis, a disease of the large arteries, is the primary cause of heart disease and stroke. In westernized societies, it is the underlying cause of about 50% of all deaths. Epidemiological studies have revealed several important environmental and genetic risk factors associated with atherosclerosis.

Adipose tissue cholesteryl ester transfer protein mRNA in response to probucol treatment: cholesterol and species dependence

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1993
Probucol treatment results in an increase in plasma concentrations of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) which may account, in part, for the effects of this agent on plasma concentrations of HDL cholesterol. We have examined the mechanism by which

Metabolomic study of the LDL receptor null mouse fed a high-fat diet reveals profound perturbations in choline metabolism that are shared with ApoE null mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Failure to express or expression of dysfunctional low-density lipoprotein receptors (LDLR) causes familial hypercholesterolemia in humans, a disease characterized by elevated blood cholesterol concentrations, xanthomas, and coronary heart disease ...

Quantifying apoprotein synthesis in rodents: coupling LC-MS/MS analyses with the administration of labeled water

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2012
Stable isotope tracer studies of apoprotein flux in rodent models present difficulties as they require working with small volumes of plasma. We demonstrate the ability to measure apoprotein flux by administering either 2H- or 18O-labeled water to mice ...
