Unilateral mastication‐induced memory deficits linked to disrupted hippocampal cholesterol metabolism in rats

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Unilateral mastication, a common oral habit, induces cognitive decline in rats by disrupting hippocampal cholesterol metabolism. It triggers astrocyte hyperplasia, enhances cholesterol synthesis, impairs transport/degradation, and reduces 24‐hydroxycholesterol (24‐OHC), ultimately damaging synaptic function.

Abnormal high density lipoproteins of abetalipoproteinemia: relevance to normal HDL metabolism

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1982
We investigated high density lipoprotein (HDL) subfractions in abetalipoproteinemia (ABL) using rate zonal ultracentrifugation. In ABL, HDL2 is the major subfraction, 65% of total mass compared to less than 10% in normal subjects with similar HDL levels.

Molecular Disorders of Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein

open access: yesJournal of Atherosclerosis and Thrombosis, 1996
Plasma cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) facilitates the transfer of cholesteryl ester (CE) from HDL to apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins and therefore is a key protein in the reverse cholesterol transport system. The importance of plasma CETP in lipoprotein metabolism has been highlighted by the discovery of CETP-deficient subjects with

Advances in cholesterol and lipoproteins detection for healthcare: A review

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Cholesterol is one of the main biomarkers related to the development of cardiovascular diseases. Its detection still relies on traditional methods of analysis, such as gas and liquid chromatographies. Detection of free cholesterol in saliva with redox or enzymatic sensors or detection of lipoproteins in blood with aptamer sensors are currently the most

Allelic variation in the gene encoding the cholesteryl ester transfer protein is associated with variation in the plasma concentrations of cholesteryl ester transfer protein.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1996
The cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) mediates the transfer of cholesteryl esters from high density lipoproteins (HDL) to triglyceride-rich lipoproteins. Mutations that abolish CETP function are associated with very high levels of HDL cholesterol,

Upregulation of sphingomyelin and ABCA8 in response to TDP‐43 pathology in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis brain

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
Increases in sphingomyelin in response to TDP‐43 pathology in the disease‐affected motor cortex of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) brain. Abstract Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a rapidly progressing neurodegenerative disease characterized by the degeneration of motor neurons and the presence of TAR DNA‐binding protein 43 (TDP‐43 ...

Anacetrapib reduces progression of atherosclerosis, mainly by reducing non-HDL-cholesterol, improves lesion stability and adds to the beneficial effects of atorvastatin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The present study is the first intervention study in a well-established, translational mouse model for hyperlipidaemia and atherosclerosis showing that anacetrapib dose-dependently reduces atherosclerosis development and adds to the anti-atherogenic ...

Selective Cholesterol Dynamics between Lipoproteins and Caveolae/Lipid Rafts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Although low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor-mediated cholesterol uptake through clathrin-coated pits is now well understood, the molecular details and organizing principles for selective cholesterol uptake/efflux (reverse cholesterol transport, RCT ...
