PCSK9-mediated degradation of the LDL receptor generates a 17 kDa C-terminal LDL receptor fragment
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) binds to the LDL receptor (LDLR) at the cell surface and reroutes the internalized LDLR to intracellular degradation.

Effect of probucol on LDL oxidation and atherosclerosis in LDL receptor-deficient mice [PDF]
Probucol is a powerful inhibitor of atherosclerosis in a number of animal models. However, it is unknown whether this is due to the strong antioxidant protection of low density lipoprotein (LDL), to antioxidant effects in the artery wall, or to cellular effects not shared by other antioxidants. To investigate whether murine models are suitable to study

The LDL receptor gene: a mosaic of exons shared with different proteins.
The multifunctional nature of coated pit receptors predicts that these proteins will contain multiple domains. To establish the genetic basis for these domains (LDL) receptor.

Childhood Obesity and Familial Hypercholesterolemia: Genetic Diseases that Contribute to Cardiovascular Disease [PDF]
Childhood obesity occurs as the result of an imbalance between caloric intake and energy expenditure. Genetic risk factors for obesity have become an area of research due to its permanency.

We have reported the use of a retroviral vector to introduce the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor gene into receptor-deficient Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic (WHHL) rabbit fibroblasts (Miyanohara, A., M. F. Sharkey, D. Steinberg, J. L.

Vector Space Morphology with Linear Discriminative Learning [PDF]
This paper presents three case studies of modeling aspects of lexical processing with Linear Discriminative Learning (LDL), the computational engine of the Discriminative Lexicon model (Baayen et al., 2019). With numeric representations of word forms and meanings, LDL learns to map one vector space onto the other, without being informed about any ...

A Role of the Bile Salt Receptor FXR in Atherosclerosis [PDF]
This study reviews current insights into the role of bile salts and bile salt receptors on the progression and regression of atherosclerosis. Bile salts have emerged as important modifiers of lipid and energy metabolism.

TabMixer: Excavating Label Distribution Learning with Small-scale Features [PDF]
Label distribution learning (LDL) differs from multi-label learning which aims at representing the polysemy of instances by transforming single-label values into descriptive degrees. Unfortunately, the feature space of the label distribution dataset is affected by human factors and the inductive bias of the feature extractor causing uncertainty in the ...

Effects of coexpression of the LDL receptor and apoE on cholesterol metabolism and atherosclerosis in LDL receptor-deficient mice [PDF]
The low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) plays a major role in regulation of plasma cholesterol levels as a ligand for apolipoprotein B-100 and apolipoprotein E (apoE). Consequently, LDLR-deficient mice fed a Western-type diet develop significant hypercholesterolemia and atherosclerosis.
