Cholesterol uptake and efflux are impaired in human trophoblast cells from pregnancies with maternal supraphysiological hypercholesterolemia. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Maternal physiological (MPH) or supraphysiological hypercholesterolaemia (MSPH) occurs during pregnancy. Cholesterol trafficking from maternal to foetal circulation requires the uptake of maternal LDL and HDL by syncytiotrophoblast and cholesterol efflux

Inhibition of cellular cholesterol efflux by 25-hydroxycholesterol.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1995
The effect of oxysterols on efflux of cholesterol from mouse L-cell fibroblasts, rat Fu5AH hepatoma cells, J774 macrophages, and human EA.hy 926 endothelial cells was studied.

Cholesterol Efflux and Atheroprotection [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2012
High-density lipoprotein (HDL) has been proposed to have several antiatherosclerotic properties, including the ability to mediate macrophage cholesterol efflux, antioxidant capacity, antiinflammatory properties, nitric oxide–promoting activity, and ability to transport proteins with their own intrinsic biological activities.1 HDL particles are critical

Inhibition of Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase Erk1/2 Promotes Protein Degradation of ATP Binding Cassette Transporters A1 and G1 in CHO and in HuH7 cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Signal transduction modulates expression and activity of cholesterol transporters. We recently demonstrated that the Ras/mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling cascade regulates protein stability of Scavenger Receptor BI (SR-BI) through ...

Connecting Cholesterol Efflux Factors to Lung Cancer Biology and Therapeutics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Cholesterol is a foundational molecule of biology. There is a long-standing interest in understanding how cholesterol metabolism is intertwined with cancer biology.

Dissecting the Impact of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell ABCA1 versus ABCG1 Expression on Cholesterol Efflux and Macrophage-like Cell Transdifferentiation: The Role of SR-BI

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2023
Cholesterol-laden macrophages are recognized as a major contributor to atherosclerosis. However, recent evidence indicates that vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) that accumulate cholesterol and transdifferentiate into a macrophage-like cell (MLC ...

The roles of different pathways in the release of cholesterol from macrophages

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2007
Cholesterol efflux occurs by different pathways, including transport mediated by specific proteins. We determined the effect of enriching cells with free cholesterol (FC) on the release of FC to human serum.

A new pathway of macrophage cholesterol efflux [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2020
Macrophage foam cells (i.e., cholesteryl ester-laden macrophages) are abundant in atherosclerotic plaques, and increased macrophage foam cell content is associated with plaque instability (1, 2). Macrophages are generally thought to unload surplus cholesterol via efflux mediated by the ATP-binding cassette transporters A1 and G1 (ABCA1 and ABCG1) to ...

Effects of dalcetrapib in patients with a recent acute coronary syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In observational analyses, higher levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol have been associated with a lower risk of coronary heart disease events.

Cellular cholesterol efflux is modulated by phospholipid-derived signaling molecules in familial HDL deficiency/Tangier disease fibroblasts

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2001
Familial HDL deficiency (FHD) is the heterozygous form of Tangier disease (TD). Mutations of the ABCA1 gene cause FHD and TD. FHD/TD cells are unable to normally efflux cholesterol onto nascent HDL particles, which are rapidly catabolized. TD fibroblasts
