The oxygenation of cholesterol esters by the reticulocyte lipoxygenase

, 1991
The arachidonate 15-lipoxygenase from rabbit reticulocytes oxygenates cholesterol esters containing polyenoic fatty acids. Cholesterol esterified with saturated fatty acids is not oxygenated. The structures of the oxygenation products formed from various

In vitro incorporation of cholesterol-14C in to very low density lipoprotein cholesteryl esters

Journal of Lipid Research, 1968
The cholesteryl esters of very low density lipoproteins become labeled when human plasma is incubated with cholesterol-14C. The relative order of magnitude of the specific activity of the cholesteryl esters of the major lipoprotein fractions is: high ...

Mechanism of the defect in cholesteryl ester clearance from macrophages of atherosclerosis-susceptible White Carneau pigeons.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1994
Recent studies from our laboratory (Yancey, P.G., and R. W. St. Clair. 1992. Arterioscler. Thromb. 12: 1291-1304) have shown that cultured peritoneal macrophages from White Carneau (WC) pigeons clear cholesteryl esters at a slower rate than do ...

The formation and consequences of cholesterol-rich deposits in atherosclerotic lesions

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of death throughout the world. Accumulation of lipoprotein-associated lipids and their interaction with macrophages are early steps in the development of atherosclerotic lesions.

Investigating the Effects of Statins on Cellular Lipid Metabolism Using a Yeast Expression System [PDF]

, 2009
In humans, defects in lipid metabolism are associated with a number of severe diseases such as atherosclerosis, obesity and type II diabetes. Hypercholesterolemia is a primary risk factor for coronary artery disease, the major cause of premature deaths

Effect of large doses of the oral contraceptive Enovid on cholesterol metabolism in the rat

Journal of Lipid Research, 1968
Short-term effects of the oral contraceptive drug, Enovid, a mixture of estrogenic and progesterone compounds, have been determined in experiments on male and female rats.

Purification of neutral lipid fractions by thin-layer chromatography on aluminum oxide

Journal of Lipid Research, 1965
Two-stage thin-layer chromatography on Aluminum Oxide G has been used to separate triglycerides, cholesterol, cholesterol esters, and diglycerides from contaminating fatty acids present in the lipid mixtures.

Separation and identification of triglycerides, cholesteryl esters, cholesterol, 7-dehydrocholesterol, dolichol, ubiquinone, alpha-tocopherol, and retinol by high performance liquid chromatography with a diode array detector

Journal of Lipid Research, 1988
A simple isocratic high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system is described that allows separation and identification of cholesteryl esters, triglycerides, ubiquinone, alpha-tocopherol, dolichol, cholesterol, 7-dehydrocholesterol, and retinol ...

Turnover of cholesteryl esters of plasma lipoproteins in the rat

Journal of Lipid Research, 1967
Turnover of individual classes of cholesteryl esters (classified on the basis of the degree of unsaturation of the fatty acid moiety) in rat plasma lipoproteins and liver was studied after the administration of mevalonic acid-5-3H and mevalonic acid-2 ...
