Macrophage foam cells must accommodate continuing fluxes of free cholesterol in spite of a greatly expanded store of cholesteryl ester. Though endogenous free cholesterol synthesis is suppressed, free cholesterol continues to enter the cell via ...

The rate of secretion of apoB-100-containing lipoprotein particles by HepG2 cells is determined to an important extent by post-translational mechanisms, the mass of neutral lipids clearly playing a role in this process.

Cholesteryl ester-rich microemulsions: stable protein-free analogs of low density lipoproteins.
A method has been devised for the preparation of stable lipid microemulsions containing cholesterol, cholesteryl ester, phosphatidylcholine, and trioleoylglycerol in the relative molar ratios found in low density lipoproteins.

Use of fluorescent cholesteryl ester microemulsions in cholesteryl ester transfer protein assays
In the present report we describe a simple and practical method to assess CETP activity in a defined system by use of microemulsions containing a fluorescent cholesteryl ester analog. The microemulsions are stable, simple to prepare, and can be made to defined composition.

Plasma lipoproteins from male rats were isolated by rate zonal centrifugation. Four lipoproteins were identified: VLDL, LDL, HDL1, and HDL2. LDL, HLD1, and some HDL2 distributed within the salt density interval of 1.006-1.085 g/ml, while HDL2 was found ...

Polysaccharide-based self-assembling nanohydrogels: An overview on 25-years research on pullulan [PDF]
The aim of this overview is to review the evolution of the studies carried out, during more than 25 years, on nanohydrogels obtained by self-assembling of pullulan (PUL) using several hydrophobization strategies.

Cholesteryl esters are the major lipids that accumulate in arteries during atherogenesis. The mechanisms responsible for this lipid accretion have not been completely defined.

The Proteome of Cholesteryl-Ester-Enriched Versus Triacylglycerol-Enriched Lipid Droplets
Within cells, lipids are stored in the form of lipid droplets (LDs), consisting of a neutral lipid core, surrounded by a phospholipid monolayer and an outer layer of protein.

Is hypertriglyceridemic very low density lipoprotein a precursor of normal low density lipoprotein?
The precursor-product relationship of very low density (VLDL) and low density lipoproteins (LDL) was studied. VLDL obtained from normal (NTG) and hypertriglyceridemic (HTG) subjects was fractionated by zonal ultracentrifugation and subjected to in vitro ...

The cholesterol ester cycle regulates signalling complexes and synapse damage caused by amyloid-ß [PDF]
Cholesterol is required for the formation and function of some signalling platforms. In synaptosomes, amyloid-β (Aβ) oligomers, the causative agent in Alzheimer's disease, bind to cellular prion proteins (PrPC) resulting in increased cholesterol ...
