ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 gene polymorphisms and serum lipid levels in young Greek nurses

Lipids in Health and Disease, 2011
Objective The ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) is essential protein involved in lipid metabolism. The present study was undertaken to detect the possible association of polymorphisms in the ABCA1 gene [rs2230806 (R219K) and rs2230808 (R1587K)]

Targeted delivery of rosuvastatin enhances treatment of hyperhomocysteinemia-induced atherosclerosis using macrophage membrane-coated nanoparticles

Journal of Pharmaceutical Analysis
Rosuvastatin (RVS) is an excellent drug with anti-inflammatory and lipid-lowering properties in the academic and medical fields. However, this drug faces a series of challenges when used to treat atherosclerosis caused by hyperhomocysteinemia (HHcy ...

Apolipoprotein A-II alters the proteome of human lipoproteins and enhances cholesterol efflux from ABCA1

Journal of Lipid Research, 2017
HDLs are a family of heterogeneous particles that vary in size, composition, and function. The structure of most HDLs is maintained by two scaffold proteins, apoA-I and apoA-II, but up to 95 other “accessory” proteins have been found associated with the ...

Regulation and Mechanisms of ATP-Binding Cassette Transporter A1-Mediated Cellular Cholesterol Efflux [PDF]

Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2003
ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) plays a major role in cholesterol homeostasis and HDL metabolism. ABCA1 mediates cellular cholesterol and phospholipid efflux to lipid-poor apolipoproteins, and upregulation of ABCA1 activity is antiatherogenic.

Regulating Lipid Metabolism in Cancer: The Therapeutic Potential of Traditional Chinese Medicine

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
By regulating the reprogramming of lipid metabolism in tumor cells, TCM provides a novel strategy for antitumor therapy with reduced toxicity and enhanced efficacy. ABSTRACT Lipid metabolic reprogramming is a key feature of tumor cells to adapt to the microenvironment and plays an important role in tumor growth, invasion, and metastasis.

Transcriptional regulation of the ABCC6 gene and the background of impaired function of missense disease-causing mutations. [PDF]

, 2013
The human ATP-binding cassette family C member 6 (ABCC6) gene encodes an ABC transporter protein expressed primarily in the liver and to a lesser extent in the kidneys and the intestines.

Apolipoprotein A-I activates Cdc42 signaling through the ABCA1 transporter

Journal of Lipid Research, 2006
It has been suggested that the signal transduction initiated by apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) activates key proteins involved in cholesterol efflux. ABCA1 serves as a binding partner for apoA-I, but its participation in apoA-I-induced signaling remains ...

Notoginsenoside R2 Antagonizes Renal Interstitial Fibrosis by Regulating Fatty Acid Oxidation via the CASP2/ALDH3A1 Axis

Phytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
Proposed mechanism by which notoginsenoside R2 (NGR2) attenuates renal interstitial fibrosis. In injured renal tubular epithelial cells, CASP2 downregulation and enhanced ubiquitin‐dependent degradation of ALDH3A1 disrupt mitochondria‐associated endoplasmic reticulum membranes (MAMs) and impair fatty acid oxidation (FAO), leading to lipid accumulation ...
