Chalcone Derivatives Enhance ATP-Binding Cassette Transporters A1 in Human THP-1 Macrophages [PDF]

Molecules, 2018
Atherosclerosis is a process of imbalanced lipid metabolism in the vascular walls. The underlying pathology mainly involves the deposition of oxidized lipids in the endothelium and the accumulation of cholesterol in macrophages. Macrophages export excessive cholesterol (cholesterol efflux) through ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) to counter ...

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.

MEDI6012: Recombinant Human Lecithin Cholesterol Acyltransferase, High‐Density Lipoprotein, and Low‐Density Lipoprotein Receptor–Mediated Reverse Cholesterol Transport

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
Background MEDI6012 is recombinant human lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase, the rate‐limiting enzyme in reverse cholesterol transport. Infusions of lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase have the potential to enhance reverse cholesterol transport and ...

Acetylsalicylic acid, aging and coronary artery disease are associated with ABCA1 DNA methylation in men [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: Previous studies have suggested that DNA methylation contributes to coronary artery disease (CAD) risk variability. DNA hypermethylation at the ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) gene, an important modulator of high-density ...

Targeting Lactate and Lactylation in Cancer Metabolism and Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Lactate, once deemed a metabolic waste, emerges as a central regulator of cancer progression. This review elucidates how lactate and its epigenetic derivative, protein lactylation, orchestrate tumor metabolism, immune suppression, and therapeutic resistance.

ATP-Binding Cassette Transporter A1 Modulates Apolipoprotein A-I Transcytosis Through Aortic Endothelial Cells [PDF]

Circulation Research, 2006
High-density lipoproteins and their major protein constituent apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) possess diverse atheroprotective properties. Most of them must be exerted within the arterial wall. Actually, high-density lipoproteins are the most abundant lipoproteins within the arterial intima.

The BnTFL1‐BnJAM3‐BnSWEETs Module Orchestrates Seed Storage Reserve Accumulation in Brassica napus

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
BnaC03.TFL1 and BnaA01.JAM3 form a complex that facilitates the transport of soluble sugars from the seed coat to the embryo by directly activating the expression of BnSWEETs. Furthermore, BnaC03.TFL1 and BnaA01.JAM3 work cooperatively to promote soluble sugar and oil production while suppressing protein deposition.

Depletion of p75NTR in Schwann Cells Driven by Inflammation Mediates Cutaneous Pain in Psoriasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Psoriasis‐like inflammation induces proliferation and molecular remodeling of cutaneous Schwann cells, marked by reduced p75NTR and increased NGF expression. IL‐17A promotes this process, whereas Schwann cell‐specific p75NTR overexpression alleviates cutaneous pain in vivo.
