Deficiency of PXR decreases atherosclerosis in apoE-deficient mice

Journal of Lipid Research, 2011
The pregnane X receptor (PXR, also known as SXR) is a nuclear hormone receptor activated by xenobiotics as well as diverse sterols and their metabolites.

Tailored Hierarchical Porous Copper Architectures via Three Dimensional Printing and Pressure‐less Sintering for Next‐Generation Lithium‐Metal Batteries

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A hierarchical porous copper current collector is fabricated via three‐dimensional printing combined with pressureless sintering to stabilize lithium metal anodes. The interconnected architecture lowers local current density, guides uniform Li deposition within pores, and suppresses dendrite growth.

A role for PKC  in foam cell formation? [PDF]

Cardiovascular Research, 2012
With great interest we have read the recently published article by Lin et al . 1 where PKCδ is described to regulate uptake of oxLDL and the resultant foam cell formation, thereby suggesting a potential role of this protein kinase in atherogenesis. In their study Lin et al .

Cholesterol and oxysterol metabolism and subcellular distribution in macrophage foam cells: accumulation of oxidized esters in lysosomes

Journal of Lipid Research, 2000
Cholesterol- and cholesteryl ester-rich macrophage foam cells, characteristic of atherosclerotic lesions, are often generated in vitro using oxidized low density lipoprotein (OxLDL).

Oxidized LDL activates phospholipase A2 to supply fatty acids required for cholesterol esterification

Journal of Lipid Research, 2003
We examined the roles of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) in oxidized LDL (oxLDL)-induced cholesteryl ester formation in macrophages. In [3H]oleic acid-labeled RAW264.7 cells and mouse peritoneal macrophages, oxLDL induced [3H]cholesteryl oleate formation with an

Control of Foam Structure in PolyStyrene-Nanosilica-Carbon Dioxide: Effect of Temperature and Nanoparticles [PDF]

علوم و تکنولوژی پلیمر, 2016
This study addresses the effect of temperature and nanoparticle on PS foam structure in order to control its structure more accurately. For this purpose, a theoretical hypothesis was proposed by explaining the classical nucleation theory.

Evaluating Energy Absorption Performance of Filled Lattice Structures

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Maximum stress must be considered to robustly evaluate energy absorber designs. This approach was applied to compare all types of absorbers in a single Ashby diagram and determine the utility of filling lattice voids with a second material. High‐performance fillers can improve the performance of lattices that are limited by buckling or catastrophic ...
