Introduction. Hepatitis C virus (HCV) remains a significant public health concern. The application of existing antiviral agents is restricted by their high cost and the development of viral resistance, while vaccine development is impeded by the ...

Due to the complex pathophysiology of aortic valve disease (AVD) and the resulting lack of effective pharmacotherapy, existing animal models are valuable research tools, but each has its own strengths and limitations. This review systematically surveys the major AVD models, compares their induction methods, pathological features, advantages and ...

Inhibitors of AKT kinase increase LDL receptor mRNA expression by two different mechanisms.
Protein kinase B (AKT) is a serine/threonine kinase that functions as an important downstream effector of phosphoinositide 3-kinase. We have recently shown that MK-2206 and triciribine, two highly selective AKT inhibitors increase the level of low ...

Secreted PCSK9 downregulates low density lipoprotein receptor through receptor-mediated endocytosis
Proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is a protease that regulates low density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) protein levels. The mechanisms of this action, however, remain to be defined.

Outgrowth of S. typhimurium in the organs of LDLR+/+ and LDLR−/− mice.
Outgrowth of S. typhimurium in the liver, spleen and bone marrow of LDLR−/− and control (LDLR+/+) C57Bl/6J mice after i.v. injection of 102 cfu. Each point represents the mean±SD for at least 10 animals. Significant differences between LDLR−/− and LDLR+/+

Therapeutic targets of hypercholesterolemia: HMGCR and LDLR.
Cholesterol homeostasis is critical and necessary for the body's functions. Hypercholesterolemia can lead to significant clinical problems, such as cardiovascular disease (CVD). 3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMGCR) and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol receptor (LDLR) are major points of control in cholesterol homeostasis.

Interactions of NEU1 with ASGR and LDLR [PDF]
Development of atherosclerosis, the hardening of the arteries, is dependent on levels of serum cholesterol, which is regulated by the liver via LDL receptors (LDLR). The expression and internalization of LDL receptors depend on several proteins including

Immunometabolic profiling of human monocytes in response to lipid exposure
Monocytes are central in inflammation and atherogenesis. Postprandial lipemia is a known pro-atherogenic state, yet its impact on monocyte activation remains incompletely understood.

Background: IκBNS, a nuclear IκB protein, regulates a subset of Toll-like receptor (TLR) dependent genes. A cholate-containing high-fat diet (HFD(CA(+))) induces TLR4 mediated early inflammatory response.
