Effects of cholesteryl ester transfer protein TAQ1B polymorphism in renal transplant patients
Background. Dyslipidemia is an important complication in renal transplant patients. Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) mediates the exchange of cholesteryl ester between high density lipoproteins and low density lipoproteins. The aim of this study

Hormone-sensitive lipase is not required for cholesteryl ester hydrolysis in macrophages
Storage of cholesteryl esters in the cytoplasm of macrophages is one of the earliest and most ubiquitous event observed in the development of arteriosclerosis. Macrophages have an enormous capacity to uptake and store cholesterol in the form of cytosolic

Cannabidiol (CBD) and cannabigerol (CBG) alleviate hepatic steatosis in obese mice by shifting energy buffering towards phosphocreatine and enhancing lysosomal lipid degradation and trafficking. These effects are associated with increased creatine kinase activity and lysobisphosphatidic acid (LBPA) levels, highlighting a previously unrecognised ...

In this study, we identified a synthetic naphthoquinone merosesquiterpene as a potent PKCι inhibitor, emerging as the most strongly inhibited kinase within a panel of 410 human kinases. Structure–activity relationship (SAR) studies using a focused library of terpenoid analogues highlighted the critical role of the naphthoquinone core and the aromatic ...

Probucol increases cholesteryl ester transfer protein activity in hypercholesterolaemic patients
Probucol, a widely used lipid lowering drug, reduces both low- and high-density (LDL and HDL) lipoprotein levels and can induce a regression of tissue lipid deposits in both animals and man.

ABSTRACT Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has emerged as the most prevalent chronic liver disease worldwide, with an increasing number of patients progressing to cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Early identification of individuals at high risk for advanced fibrosis is essential for preventing liver‐related ...

Brain cholesterol homeostasis is tightly regulated and largely independent of peripheral cholesterol. This review proposes a unifying framework in which aging, sex, and related biological stressors, including hypercholesterolemia, neurodegeneration, inflammation, and oxidative stress, converge to disrupt cholesterol homeostasis in the brain ...

Abstract Background and Aims High cholesterol absorption efficiency is determined by genetic variation in small intestinal sterol transporters and affects one‐third of individuals. Their risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) is increased compared with low cholesterol absorbers, despite similar serum lipid concentrations.

Leishmania infantum propagated in IDE8 tick cell line in vitro. L. infantum reduces tick cell viability and induces reactive oxygen species production. Lipidic profile of IDE8 tick cell line is altered during Leishmania infection. Abstract Leishmaniasis comprises a group of vector‐borne neglected tropical diseases caused by species of the obligatory ...
