ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 and HDL metabolism: effects of fatty acids [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry, 2012
Ample evidence indicates that dietary fatty acids alter the plasma levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). However, the mechanisms underlying the effects of fatty acids still remain elusive. Recent advances in our understanding of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) function and regulation have provided a valuable insight into ...

Phosphorylation by Protein Kinase CK2 Modulates the Activity of the ATP Binding Cassette A1 Transporter [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2004
In a previous characterization of the ABCA subfamily of the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters, we identified potential protein kinase 2 (CK2) phosphorylation sites, which are conserved in eukaryotic and prokaryotic members of the ABCA transporters.

New Strategies to Promote Macrophage Cholesterol Efflux

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
The capacity of macrophages to dispose of cholesterol deposited in the atherosclerotic plaque depends on their ability to activate cholesterol efflux pathways.

Identification of an ABCA1-dependent phospholipid-rich plasma membrane apolipoprotein A-I binding site for nascent HDL formation: implications for current models of HDL biogenesis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2007
It is well accepted that both apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) and ABCA1 play crucial roles in HDL biogenesis and in the human atheroprotective system. However, the nature and specifics of apoA-I/ABCA1 interactions remain poorly understood.

Pitavastatin Increases ABCA1 Expression by Dual Mechanisms: SREBP2-Driven Transcriptional Activation and PPARα-Dependent Protein Stabilization but Without Activating LXR in Rat Hepatoma McARH7777 Cells

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2011
.: Hepatic ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) plays a key role in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) production by apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) lipidation.

Perivascular Adipose-Derived Exosomes Reduce Foam Cell Formation by Regulating Expression of Cholesterol Transporters

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Background: Accumulating evidence demonstrates that perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) plays an important role in maintaining vascular homeostasis. The formation of macrophage foam cells is a central feature of atherosclerosis.

Janus kinase 2 modulates the lipid-removing but not protein-stabilizing interactions of amphipathic helices with ABCA1

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2006
ABCA1 mediates the transport of cellular cholesterol and phospholipids to HDL apolipoproteins. Apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) interactions with ABCA1-expressing cells elicit several responses, including removing cellular lipids, stabilizing ABCA1 protein ...

Common ABCA1 variants, HDL levels, and cellular cholesterol efflux in subjects with familial low HDLs⃞

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2007
HDL promotes cholesterol efflux from peripheral cells via ABCA1 in the first step of reverse cholesterol transport (RCT). We investigated whether the early steps of RCT were disturbed in subjects with familial low HDL and an increased risk for early ...
