Analysis of atherosclerotic plaque distribution in the carotid artery

Clinical Cardiology, Volume 45, Issue 12, Page 1272-1276, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background The present study was designed to investigate the hypothesis that the outer wall at the carotid bifurcation is the most common area of atherosclerotic plaque deposition due to the low shear stress. Hypothesis We hypothesized that the most common site of arteriosclerosis in carotid arteries is different in the early and late stages ...

Central Hypothyroidism with Low TSH Compared to Normal TSH Is Associated with More Advanced Pituitary Disease and Less Favorable Metabolic Profile

Metabolites
Background: Central hypothyroidism is characterized by either decreased TSH or, more commonly, normal TSH. This study aims to check whether this biochemical difference related to the severity of the pituitary disease, metabolic processes and general well-

Macrophage HM13/SPP Enhances Foamy Macrophage Formation and Atherogenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Previous research suggests that AIP may prevent atherogenic foamy macrophage formation. This study reveals that AIP, via its chaperone interaction with AHR, inhibits p38‐c‐JUN‐mediated transactivation of HM13, which encodes the ERAD protease HM13/SPP. HM13/SPP promotes foamy macrophage formation in addition to atherogenesis and plaque foamy macrophage ...

Depletion of Hepatic SREBP2 Protects Against Hypercholesterolemia and Atherosclerosis through the ANGPTL3‐LPL Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals a novel crosstalk between hepatic SREBP2‐mediated cholesterol biosynthesis pathway and peripheral lipoprotein lipase‐mediated lipolysis pathway in the regulation of systemic lipid metabolism. Notably, the lipid‐lowering effects of SREBP2 inhibition are independent of a functional LDL receptor, highlighting the potential of acute ...

The involvement of upstream stimulatory factor 1 in Dutch patients with familial combined hyperlipidemias⃞ Published, JLR Papers in Press, October 25, 2006.

Journal of Lipid Research, 2007
Recently, the upstream stimulatory factor 1 gene (USF1) was proposed as a candidate gene for familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCH). In this study, we examined the previously identified risk haplotype of USF1 with respect to FCH and its related ...

Gut Microbiota Colonization in Early Life Influences Susceptibility to Adulthood Hepatic Lipid Accumulation in High‐Fat‐Diet‐Fed Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study indicates that perinatal antibiotic exposure elevates susceptibility to high‐fat‐diet‐induced hepatic lipid accumulation via disrupting early‐life gut microbiota colonization. The decreased Lactobacillus colonization inhibits primary‐to‐secondary bile acid conversion, lowering secondary bile acids, enhancing adulthood intestinal lipid ...
