A potential biomarker of cognitive impairment: The olfactory dysfunction and its genes expression

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, Volume 9, Issue 12, Page 1884-1897, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Objective Accumulation evidence has reported that olfactory impairment may be an essential clinical marker and predictor of mild cognitive impairment or Alzheimer's disease. Method Participants were enrolled in the population‐based, prospective study in Fuxin county, Liaoning province, China between 2019 and 2021.

Metabolism of low-density lipoproteins by cultured hepatocytes from normal and homozygous familial hypercholesterolemic subjects [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
The profoundly elevated concentrations of low-density lipoproteins (LDL) present in homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia lead to symptomatic cardiovascular disease and death by early adulthood.

Mechanisms of dysregulation of low-density lipoprotein receptor expression in vascular smooth muscle cells by inflammatory cytokines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006

LDL Receptors in Keratinocytes

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 1992
The presence of sufficient amounts of cholesterol in the epidermis is necessary for proper functioning of plasma membranes in the viable epidermal cell layers and also for the barrier quality of lipid intercellular bilayers of the stratum corneum. Cholesterol can be generated by local epidermal synthesis, or imported from the circulation as low-density

Liver Transplantation to Provide Low-Density-Lipoprotein Receptors and Lower Plasma Cholesterol in a Child with Homozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
A six-year-old girl with severe hypercholesterolemia and atherosclerosis had two defective genes at the low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) receptor locus, as determined by biochemical studies of cultured fibroblasts.

A common polymorphism in the LDL receptor gene has multiple effects on LDL receptor function [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2013
A common synonymous single nucleotide polymorphism in exon 12 of the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) gene, rs688, has been associated with increased plasma total and LDL cholesterol in several populations. Using immortalized lymphoblastoid cell lines from a healthy study population, we confirmed an earlier report that the minor allele of rs688 ...

A New Function for the LDL Receptor: Transcytosis of LDL across the Blood–Brain Barrier [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Lipoprotein transport across the blood–brain barrier (BBB) is of critical importance for the delivery of essential lipids to the brain cells. The occurrence of a low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor on the BBB has recently been demonstrated.

Coaxing the LDL Receptor Family into the Fold [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2003
Low-density-lipoprotein (LDL) receptor family members control diverse developmental and physiological pathways. In this issue of Cell, both Culi and Mann and Hsieh et al. report on Boca/MESD, a highly conserved chaperone required for transport of LDLR family proteins to the cell surface.

Atomistic characterization of the SiO2 high-density liquid/low-density liquid interface [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The equilibrium silica liquid-liquid interface between the high-density liquid (HDL) phase and the low-density liquid (LDL) phase is examined using molecular-dynamics simulation. The structure, thermodynamics, and dynamics within the interfacial region are characterized in detail and compared with previous studies on the liquid-liquid phase transition (

Detection of large deletions in the LDL receptor gene with quantitative PCR methods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
BACKGROUND: Familial Hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a common genetic disease and at the molecular level most often due to mutations in the LDL receptor gene.
