Porphyromonas gingivalis lipopolysaccharide alters atherosclerotic-related gene expression in oxidized low-density-lipoprotein-induced macrophages and foam cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The molecular mechanism between atherosclerosis formation and periodontal pathogens is not clear although positive correlation between periodontal infections and cardiovascular diseases has been reported.

Recombinant Klotho protein enhances cholesterol efflux of THP-1 macrophage-derived foam cells via suppressing Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2020
Background Atherosclerosis (AS) is the basis of cardiovascular diseases, characterized by chronic inflammatory and lipid metabolism disorders. Although the anti-inflammatory effect of Klotho in AS has been clearly shown, its lipid-lowering effect is ...

Foam cells in atherosclerosis

open access: yesClinica Chimica Acta, 2013
Atherosclerosis is a chronic disease characterized by the deposition of excessive cholesterol in the arterial intima. Macrophage foam cells play a critical role in the occurrence and development of atherosclerosis. The generation of these cells is associated with imbalance of cholesterol influx, esterification and efflux.

Macrophage Differentiation to Foam Cells [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Pharmaceutical Design, 2005
Foam cell formation from macrophages with subsequent fatty streak formation plays a key role in early atherogenesis. Foam cell formation is thought to be induced by Low Density Lipoproteins (LDL), including oxidized LDL (OxLDL) or minimally modified LDL (mmLDL).

The Influence of Foaming Agents on Aluminium Foam Cell Morphology

open access: yesMetals, 2023
The choice of foaming agent and its mass fraction significantly affect the size and number of metal foam cells. The powder metallurgy process was used to produce aluminium foams with the addition of various foaming agents: titanium hydride (TiH2) and calcium carbonate (CaCO3).

Static Compressive Properties of Polypropylene Fiber Foam Concrete with Concave Hexagonal Unit Cell

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
For the purpose of studying the influence of fiber on the negative Poisson’s ratio effect of foam concrete, a concave hexagonal unit cell structure of polypropylene fiber foam concrete was proposed.

Foam separation of microbial cells [PDF]

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, 1988
AbstractBatch foam separation has been employed to separate Saccharomyces carlsbergensis cells from their broth without the use of any external surface‐active agent. A model has been developed to predict the foamate cell concentration as well as the variation of cell concentration in the bulk liquid in the foam column as a function of time.

Oxysterol efflux from macrophage foam cells: the essential role of acceptor phospholipid

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1999
Oxidized forms of cholesterol (oxysterols) are present in atherosclerotic lesions and may play an active role in lesion development. For example, 7-ketocholesterol (7KC) inhibits cholesterol efflux from macrophage foam cells induced by apolipoprotein A-I

Nϵ-Carboxymethyl-Lysine Deteriorates Vascular Calcification in Diabetic Atherosclerosis Induced by Vascular Smooth Muscle Cell-Derived Foam Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
Nϵ-carboxymethyl-lysine (CML), an advanced glycation end product, is involved in vascular calcification (VC) in diabetic atherosclerosis. This study aimed to investigate the effects of CML on VC in diabetic atherosclerosis induced by vascular smooth ...

A lower bound for the area of Plateau foams [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Real foams can be viewed as geometrically well-organized dispersions of more or less spherical bubbles in a liquid. When the foam is so drained that the liquid content significantly decreases, the bubbles become polyhedral-like and the foam can be viewed
