Effect of hypertension on low-density lipoprotein transport within a multi-layered arterial wall: modelling consistent with experiments [PDF]

arXiv, 2016
The influence of hypertension on low-density lipoproteins intake into the arterial wall is an important factor for understanding mechanisms of atherosclerosis. It has been experimentally observed that the increased pressure leads to the higher level of the LDL inside the wall.

Homocysteine Promotes the Pathogenesis of Atherosclerosis through the Circ‐PIAS1‐5/miR‐219a‐2‐3p/TEAD1 Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A model is schematically represented for the major molecular mechanisms by which homocysteine (Hcy) accelerates the nuclear export of circ‐PIAS1‐5, which regulates atherosclerosis by acting as a competing endogenous RNA for miR‐219a‐2‐3p. Hcy enrichment of circ‐PIAS1‐5 leads to YTHDC1 binding to circ‐PIAS1‐5 and promotes its intracellular localization ...

Asprosin‐FABP5 Interaction Modulates Mitochondrial Fatty Acid Oxidation through PPARα Contributing to MASLD Development

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Aided by FABP5, abnormally elevated asprosin in hepatocytes enters the nucleus, targets and inhibits PPARα binding to the CPT1A promoter, thereby suppressing FAO. Circulating asprosin exacerbates insulin resistance, collectively driving MASLD progression.

The roles of MMP8/MMP10 polymorphisms in ischemic stroke susceptibility

Brain and Behavior, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Ischemic stroke (IS), a multifactorial and polygenic disease, is the most common cause of death. This study aimed to determine the roles of MMP8/MMP10 polymorphisms in IS susceptibility in the Chinese Han population. Methods MMP8 rs1940475 and rs3765620, and MMP10 rs17860949 from 700 IS patients and 700 controls were genotyped by ...

A Dynamical Model of Lipoprotein Metabolism [PDF]

arXiv, 2006
We present a dynamical model of lipoprotein metabolism derived by combining a cascading process in the blood stream and cellular level regulatory dynamics. We analyse the existence and stability of equilibria and show that this low-dimensional, nonlinear model exhibits bistability between a low and a high cholesterol state.

Paternal Obesity‐Induced H3K27me3 Elevation Leads to MANF‐Mediated Transgenerational Metabolic Dysfunction in Female Offspring

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Paternal lifestyle and environmental exposures play a critical role in the offspring's health. The present study established a paternal obesity model and demonstrated that elevated H3K27me3 levels in sperm persist through the 8‐cell embryo stage. This epigenetic modification triggers transgenerational decrease of MANF, inducing ER stress and activating

Lipid metabolism in pancreatic cancer: emerging roles and potential targets

Cancer Communications, Volume 42, Issue 12, Page 1234-1256, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Pancreatic cancer is one of the most serious health issues in developed and developing countries, with a 5‐year overall survival rate currently <9%. Patients typically present with advanced disease due to vague symptoms or lack of screening for early cancer detection.

Structured functional regression models for high-dimensional spatial spectroscopy data [PDF]

arXiv, 2013
Modeling and analysis of spectroscopy data is an active area of research with applications to chemistry and biology. This paper focuses on analyzing Raman spectra obtained from a bone fracture healing experiment, although the functional regression model for predicting a scalar response from high-dimensional tensors can be applied to any spectroscopy ...

Decoding Blastocystis‐Driven Mechanisms in Gut Microbiota and Host Metabolism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Blastocystis, a prevalent gut microbe, interacts with the host through metabolic and immune pathways, influencing cardiometabolic health. This perspective explores its role in modulating short‐chain fatty acid production, tryptophan metabolism, and immune signaling, potentially impacting cholesterol absorption, glucose metabolism, and vascular health ...
