ATP-Binding Cassette Transporter A1 in Lipoprotein Metabolism and Atherosclerosis [PDF]

Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2013
ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) is a key protein determining high-density lipoprotein (HDL) function. In 1999, it was discovered by 3 independent groups that mutations in the gene for ABCA1 underlie the molecular defect in the HDL deficiency syndrome Tangier disease.

NO-1886 upregulates ATP binding cassette transporter A1 and inhibits diet-induced atherosclerosis in Chinese Bama minipigs

Journal of Lipid Research, 2006
It is widely believed that high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (HDL-C) functions to transport cholesterol from peripheral cells to the liver by reverse cholesterol transport (RCT), a pathway that may protect against atherosclerosis by clearing excess ...

Dual Functions of Dietary Rubber Seed Oil Supplementation: Enriching N‐3 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids and Enhancing Antioxidant Capacity in Pekin Ducks

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Dietary RSO supplementation improved growth performance, simultaneously enriched n‐3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n‐3 PUFA), and enhanced antioxidant capacity in Pekin ducks, which suggested that RSO has the potential to be a novel n‐3 PUFA source and an antioxidant for Pekin ducks to generate animal functional foods.

The role of the lymphatic system in cholesterol transport [PDF]

, 2015
Reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) is the pathway for removal of peripheral tissue cholesterol and involves transport of cholesterol back to liver for excretion, starting from cellular cholesterol efflux facilitated by lipid-free apolipoprotein A1 ...

The Role of Obesity in the Association Between Alcohol Consumption and HDL‐c Levels: Baependi Heart Study

Lipids, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are a leading cause of global mortality, with dyslipidemia playing a central role in their pathogenesis. The influence of alcohol consumption on lipid profiles, particularly high‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL‐c), in relation to obesity status remains insufficiently explored.

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 ...

Stronger inflammatory/cytotoxic T cell response in women identified by microarray analysis [PDF]

, 2008
Women develop chronic inflammatory autoimmune diseases like lupus more often than men. The mechanisms causing the increased susceptibility are incompletely understood, although estrogen is believed to contribute.

Release of cholesterol-rich particles from the macrophage plasma membrane during movement of filopodia and lamellipodia. [PDF]

, 2019
Cultured mouse peritoneal macrophages release large numbers of ~30-nm cholesterol-rich particles. Here, we show that those particles represent fragments of the plasma membrane that are pulled away and left behind during the projection and retraction of ...

Depletion of microglial compensation in glial network: Disease‐associated response dynamics in the revised amyloid hypothesis

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.
The critical transition from amyloid pathology to irreversible neuronal loss in Alzheimer's disease hinges on the microglial response. This review aims to systematize the patterns of how microglia react within the glial context. Abstract Microglia mount coordinated, stage‐dependent compensatory programs in response to early amyloid β (Aβ) accumulation ...
