Up-regulation of the ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 inhibits hepatitis C virus infection. [PDF]
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) establishes infection using host lipid metabolism pathways that are thus considered potential targets for indirect anti-HCV strategies.

ATP-binding cassette transporter A1: From metabolism to neurodegeneration [PDF]
ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) mediates cholesterol efflux to lipid-free apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) and apolipoprotein E (apoE). ABCA1 is an essential regulator of high density lipoproteins (HDL) and reverse cholesterol transport — a role ...

Bilirubin Decreases Macrophage Cholesterol Efflux and ATP‐Binding Cassette Transporter A1 Protein Expression [PDF]
Background Mild but chronically elevated circulating unconjugated bilirubin is associated with reduced total and low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol concentration, which is associated with reduced cardiovascular disease risk.

Functional characterization of genetic variants affecting the intracellular domains of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) [PDF]
The ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) effluxes cellular cholesterol and phospholipids to extracellular acceptors, mainly apolipoprotein A1, generating high-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles.

A novel function of apolipoprotein E: upregulation of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 expression. [PDF]
Despite the well known importance of apolipoprotein (Apo) E in cholesterol efflux, the effect of ApoE on the expression of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) has never been investigated. The objective of this study was to determine the effect of

Association of ATP-Binding Cassette Transporter A1 Gene Polymorphisms in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus among Malaysians [PDF]
Background. Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a complex polygenic disorder characterized by impaired insulin resistance, insulin secretion, and dysregulation of lipid and protein metabolism with environmental and genetic factors.

ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 expression is decreased in preeclamptic placentas. [PDF]
Preeclampsia is a pregnancy-specific multisystem disorder characterized by hypertension and proteinuria. Accentuated maternal hyperlipidemia, especially high serum levels of oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL), is one of the features of preeclampsia.

ATP-binding cassette transporter A1: A promising therapy target for prostate cancer. [PDF]
ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) has been found to mediate the transfer of cellular cholesterol across the plasma membrane to apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), and is essential for the synthesis of high-density lipoprotein. Mutations of the ABCA1 gene may induce Tangier disease and familial hypoalphalipoproteinemia; they may also lead to loss of ...

Role of the irr protein in the regulation of iron metabolism in Rhodobacter sphaeroides [PDF]
In Rhizobia the Irr protein is an important regulator for iron-dependent gene expression. We studied the role of the Irr homolog RSP_3179 in the photosynthetic alpha-proteobacterium Rhodobacter sphaeroides.
