The relationships of cholesterol metabolism and plasma plant sterols with the severity of coronary artery disease1s⃞

Journal of Lipid Research, 2009
Changes in the balance of cholesterol absorption and synthesis and moderately elevated plasma plant sterols have been suggested to be atherogenic. Measuring cholestanol, lathosterol, campesterol, and sitosterol, we investigated the relationships of ...

Synthetic Biology and Metabolic Engineering of Microalgae for Sustainable Lipid and Terpenoid Production: An Updated Perspective

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microalgae are increasingly recognised as powerful platforms for the sustainable production of lipids and terpenoids, with expanding applications in the food, fuel and biomanufacturing industries. In this updated review, we consolidate and critically assess the most recent advances in synthetic biology and metabolic engineering of key ...

Plasma plant sterols serve as poor markers of cholesterol absorption in man[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2013
The validation of the use of plasma plant sterols as a marker of cholesterol absorption is frail. Nevertheless, plant sterol concentrations are routinely used to describe treatment-induced changes in cholesterol absorption.

Age-associated alterations in cholesterol homeostasis: evidence from a cross-sectional study in a Northern Italy population. [PDF]

, 2014
BACKGROUND: The modifications of cholesterol metabolism associated with aging are ill-defined. The objective of this study was to define age-associated alterations of the different metabolic pathways controlling cholesterol homeostasis by analyzing ...

Plant Lipid Droplets and Derived Lipidic Nano‐Assemblies: Structure, Biogenesis and Pharmaceutical Applications

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lipid droplets (LDs) serve as the primary storage site for neutral lipids in plant cells, with growing evidence supporting many additional biological roles, such as in lipid homeostasis, signalling, trafficking, inflammatory responses and inter‐organelle communication.

ABCG5 and ABCG8 require MDR2 for secretion of cholesterol into bile

Journal of Lipid Research, 2005
The major pathway for the removal of cholesterol from the body is via secretion into the bile. Three members of the ATP binding cassette (ABC) family, ABCG5 (G5), ABCG8 (G8), and ABCB4 (MDR2), are required for the efficient biliary export of sterols ...

The Plasma Distribution of Non-cholesterol Sterol Precursors and Products of Cholesterol Synthesis and Phytosterols Depend on HDL Concentration

Frontiers in Nutrition, 2022
Non-cholesterol sterols are transported in plasma lipoproteins and are consequently important in cholesterol metabolism. We investigated the distribution of non-cholesterol sterol precursors of cholesterol synthesis (NCSPCS), oxysterols, and phytosterols
