Phage display identification of CD100 in human atherosclerotic plaque macrophages and foam cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Atherosclerosis is a complex disease in which vessels develop plaques comprising dysfunctional endothelium, monocyte derived lipid laden foam cells and activated lymphocytes. Considering that humans and animal models of the disease develop quite distinct

Storage lipid studies in tuberculosis reveal that foam cell biogenesis is disease-specific.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2018
Foam cells are lipid-laden macrophages that contribute to the inflammation and tissue damage associated with many chronic inflammatory disorders. Although foam cell biogenesis has been extensively studied in atherosclerosis, how these cells form during a

Development of Technetium-99m-Labeled BODIPY-Based Probes Targeting Lipid Droplets Toward the Diagnosis of Hyperlipidemia-Related Diseases

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
Hyperlipidemia causes systemic lipid disorder, which leads to hepatic steatosis and atherosclerosis. Thus, it is necessary to detect these syndromes early and precisely to improve prognosis. In the affected regions, abnormal formation and growth of lipid

Effectiveness Of Watermelon (Citrullus lanatus) Red Flesh Extract On Reducing Coronary Artery Foam Cells and Thinning Of The Aortical Intima In Wistar Rats (Rattus norvegicus strain Wistar) Atherosclerosis Model

open access: yesSaintika Medika, 2023
Introduction: Atherosclerosis (AS) is a process of narrowing of the lumen of arteries due to progressive plaque buildup. Foam Cell and plaque appear as a result of lipoprotein metabolism disorders which result in inflammatory reactions.

Nicotinic acid receptor GPR109A is down-regulated in human macrophage-derived foam cells.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Nicotinic acid (NA) regresses atherosclerosis in human imaging studies and reduces atherosclerosis in mice, mediated by myeloid cells, independent of lipoproteins.

Phage Display Preparation of Specific Polypeptides in Atherosclerotic Foam Cells

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
Atherosclerosis and related complications are the most common causes of death in modern societies. Macrophage-derived foam cells play critical roles in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis.

Polypropylene foam behaviour under dynamic loadings: Strain rate, density and microstructure effects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Expanded polypropylene foams (EPP) can be used to absorb shock energy. The performance of these foams has to be studied as a function of several parameters such as density, microstructure and also the strain rate imposed during dynamic loading.

Lipopolysaccharide-induced gene expression in murine macrophages is enhanced by prior exposure to oxLDL

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2006
Uptake of modified lipoproteins by macrophages results in the formation of foam cells. We investigated how foam cell formation affects the inflammatory response of macrophages. Murine bone marrow-derived macrophages were treated with oxidized LDL (oxLDL)

Single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assays for high‐throughput DNA–protein interaction studies

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We describe an optimised single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assay that visualises DNA–protein interactions in real time. Linear DNA fragments are tethered to a surface and stretched by buffer flow for fluorescence imaging. Using λ and φX174 DNA, this protocol enhances reproducibility and accessibility, providing a versatile approach for studying diverse ...

Foam Cell Macrophages in Tuberculosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Mycobacterium tuberculosis infects primarily macrophages in the lungs. Infected macrophages are surrounded by other immune cells in well organised structures called granulomata.
