Loss of VMP1 Impairs Tight Junction Recycling and Aggravates Intestinal Barrier Dysfunction in Inflammatory Bowel Disease

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 25, 4 May 2026.
This study identifies vacuole membrane protein 1 (VMP1) as a critical regulator of intestinal epithelial barrier homeostasis. VMP1 facilitates the recruitment of CORO1C to late endosomes, supporting Retromer‐mediated recycling of the tight junction protein Occludin.

A high cholesterol diet accelerates Alzheimer's progression by promoting fibrotic damage in rats

Brain Disorders
The literature documents the ability of oxysterols and TGFβ to cause fibrotic damage in the brain. Our study explores the potential mechanisms of oxysterol interactions with fibrotic mediators in Alzheimer's disease.

PXR induces CYP27A1 and regulates cholesterol metabolism in the intestine

Journal of Lipid Research, 2007
Mitochondrial sterol 27-hydroxylase (CYP27A1) catalyzes oxidative cleavage of the sterol side chain in the bile acid biosynthetic pathway in the liver and 27-hydroxylation of cholesterol in most tissues. Recent studies suggest that 27-hydroxycholesterol (

Redox control of multidrug resistance and Its possible modulation by antioxidants [PDF]

, 2016
Clinical efficacy of anticancer chemotherapies is dramatically hampered by multidrug resistance (MDR) dependent on inherited traits, acquired defence against toxins, and adaptive mechanisms mounting in tumours.

High Density Lipoproteins Inhibit Oxidative Stress-Induced Prostate Cancer Cell Proliferation [PDF]

, 2018
Recent evidence suggests that oxidative stress can play a role in the pathogenesis and the progression of prostate cancer (PCa). Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation is higher in PCa cells compared to normal prostate epithelial cells and this ...

Enteric Nervous System Damage by Food Contaminants: A Pathway to Neurodegeneration?

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The enteric nervous system (ENS), a key component of the gut–brain axis, has emerged as a critical player in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). It is the first neural system exposed to food contaminants (FCs)—a diverse group of ubiquitous toxic compounds fortuitously present in food derived from production, processing, storage, or ...

From Adipose Tissue to Cardiac Repair: Extracellular Vesicles in Cardiovascular Regeneration

Journal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, Volume 30, Issue 9, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Adipose‐derived extracellular vesicles (ADEVs) secreted by adipose tissue have gained increasing attention due to their regenerative and immunomodulatory properties in cardiovascular diseases. They carry proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids that mediate intercellular communication and influence cardiac pathophysiology. In atherosclerosis, ADEVs

Different cellular traffic of LDL-cholesterol and acetylated LDL-cholesterol leads to distinct reverse cholesterol transport pathwayss⃞

Journal of Lipid Research, 2007
Endocytosis of LDL and modified LDL represents regulated and unregulated cholesterol delivery to macrophages. To elucidate the mechanisms of cellular cholesterol transport and egress under both conditions, various primary macrophages were labeled and ...

Apolipoprotein A-I but not high-density lipoproteins are internalised by RAW macrophages: roles of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 and scavenger receptor BI [PDF]

, 2018
Accumulation of lipid-loaded macrophages (foam cells) within the vessel wall is an early hallmark of atherosclerosis. High-density lipoproteins (HDL) and apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) can efficiently promote cholesterol efflux from macrophages.
