Changes to cholesterol trafficking in macrophages by Leishmania parasites infection [PDF]

, 2017
Leishmania spp. are protozoan parasites that are transmitted by sandfly vectors during blood sucking to vertebrate hosts and cause a spectrum of diseases called leishmaniases.

High density lipoprotein receptors, binding proteins, and ligands

Journal of Lipid Research, 1999
Several HDL binding proteins, quite disparate in structure, have recently been cloned and their role in HDL metabolism is currently being assessed. High density lipoprotein binding protein, HBP (vigilin), which lacks a transmembrane domain is responsive ...

The cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) raises cholesterol levels in the brain

Journal of Lipid Research, 2022
The cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is a lipid transfer protein responsible for the exchange of cholesteryl esters and triglycerides between lipoproteins. Decreased CETP activity is associated with longevity, cardiovascular health, and maintenance of good cognitive performance. Interestingly, mice lack the CETP-encoding gene and have very low

Resistance of a very low density lipoprotein subpopulation from familial dysbetalipoproteinemia to in vitro lipolytic conversion to the low density lipoprotein density fraction.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1983
In vitro lipolysis of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) from normolipidemic and familial dysbetalipoproteinemic plasma by purified bovine milk lipoprotein lipase was studied using the combined single vertical spin and vertical autoprofile method of ...

RNA‐Micelles as Self‐Assembling Structures for Efficient Co‐Delivery of Synergistic siRNA and Nucleoside Analogues to Treat CRC Lung Metastasis

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Two kinds of self‐assembled RNA micelles were used to co‐deliver synergistic siRNA and nucleoside analogues for the treatment of colorectal cancer lung metastases. Near‐complete elimination of lung cancer metastases was confirmed in an orthotopic lung metastasis model constructed using human colorectal cancer lung metastases patient surgical samples to

Bone marrow-derived HL mitigates bone marrow-derived CETP-mediated decreases in HDL in mice globally deficient in HL and the LDLr

Journal of Lipid Research, 2014
The objective of this study was to determine the combined effects of HL and cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP), derived exclusively from bone marrow (BM), on plasma lipids and atherosclerosis in high-fat-fed, atherosclerosis-prone mice.
