Identification and multiparametric ranking of candidate genes involved in hepatitis C virus entry and host immune response using bioinformatics methods

open access: yesЖурнал микробиологии, эпидемиологии и иммунобиологии
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 ...

Aortic valve disease: Novel animal models for advancing our understanding of the underlying mechanisms

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
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.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
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

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2007
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.

open access: yes, 2013
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.

open access: yesDiabetes, metabolic syndrome and obesity : targets and therapy, 2019
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]

open access: yes, 2019
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

open access: yesRomanian Journal of Laboratory Medicine
Monocytes are central in inflammation and atherogenesis. Postprandial lipemia is a known pro-atherogenic state, yet its impact on monocyte activation remains incompletely understood.

Lack of IκBNS promotes cholate-containing high-fat diet-induced inflammation and atherogenesis in low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor-deficient mice

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cardiology: Heart & Vasculature, 2019
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.
