Niacin Inhibits Vascular Inflammation via Downregulating Nuclear Transcription Factor-κB Signaling Pathway

Mediators of Inflammation, 2014
The study aimed to investigate the effect of niacin on vascular inflammatory lesions in vivo and in vitro as well as its lipid-regulating mechanism. In vivo study revealed that niacin downregulated the levels of inflammatory factors (IL-6 and TNF-α) in ...

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

Journal 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.

Macrophage autophagy in atherosclerosis [PDF]

, 2013
Macrophages play crucial roles in atherosclerotic immune responses. Recent investigation into macrophage autophagy (AP) in atherosclerosis has demonstrated a novel pathway through which these cells contribute to vascular inflammation.

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

Data 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

Atherosclerosis and Autoimmunity [PDF]

Mediators of Inflammation, 2018
Abstract Despite a decline in mortality rates in several countries, cardiovascular disease remains the leading cause of death responsible for approximately half of all deaths on the continent. Coronary artery disease and stroke are often the result of acute complications of atherosclerosis (AS) and atherothrombosis.

Gene deficiency in activating Fcγ receptors influences the macrophage phenotypic balance and reduces atherosclerosis in mice [PDF]

, 2013
Immunity contributes to arterial inflammation during atherosclerosis. Oxidized low-density lipoproteins induce an autoimmune response characterized by specific antibodies and immune complexes in atherosclerotic patients.

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

Journal 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

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

, 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 ...

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

Journal 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 ...
