The PCSK9 decade

Journal of Lipid Research, 2012
PCSK9 proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type (PCSK9) is a crucial protein in LDL cholesterol (LDL-C) metabolism by virtue of its pivotal role in the degradation of the LDL receptor.

Functions of lipoprotein receptors in neurons

Journal of Lipid Research, 2004
The LDL receptor (LDLR) family is comprised of several multifunctional cell surface proteins that bind and endocytose ligands with diverse biological functions.

Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptors

Nederlands tijdschrift voor geneeskunde, 1991
The origins of the receptor theory are based on the work of Paul Ehrlich (1854–1915) and John Newport Langley (1852–1925) (Parascandola 1981), who were the first to postulate that specific cellular reactions to drugs must be based on so-called receptive substances.

Different mechanisms for selective transport of fatty acids using a single class of lipoprotein in Drosophila[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2019
In mammals, lipids are selectively transported to specific sites using multiple classes of lipoproteins. However, in Drosophila, a single class of lipoproteins, lipophorin, carries more than 95% of the lipids in the hemolymph.

Oxidized LDL induces alternative macrophage phenotype through activation of CD36 and PAFR [PDF]

, 2013
OxLDL is recognized by macrophage scavenger receptors, including CD36; we have recently found that Platelet-Activating Factor Receptor (PAFR) is also involved.

A comparative study of surface binding of human low density and high density lipoproteins to human fibroblasts: regulation by sterols and susceptibility to proteolytic digestion

Journal of Lipid Research, 1977
Binding of 125I-low density lipoprotein (LDL) and 125I-high density lipoprotein (HDL) was determined in cultured human fibroblasts from a normal subject and two subjects with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HFH). Binding was assayed at 0 ° C to

Staphylococcus aureus increases Prostaglandin E2 secretion in cow neutrophils by activating TLR2, TLR4, and NLRP3 inflammasome signaling pathways

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
IntroductionIn clinical settings, dairy cows are often attacked by pathogenic bacteria after delivery, especially Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus). Neutrophils have long been regarded as essential for host defense against S. aureus.

Structural identification of oxidized acyl-phosphatidylcholines that induce platelet activation [PDF]

, 2005
Oxidation of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) generates proinflammatory and prothrombotic mediators that may play a crucial role in cardiovascular and inflammatory diseases.

The NMDA receptor functions independently and as an LRP1 co-receptor to promote Schwann cell survival and migration [PDF]

, 2015
NMDA Receptors (NMDA-Rs) are ionotropic glutamate receptors, which associate with LDL Receptor-related Protein-1 (LRP1) to trigger cell-signaling in response to protein ligands in neurons.

Lipolytic remnants of human VLDL produced in vitro: effect of HDL levels in the lipolysis mixtures on the apoCs to apoE ratio and metabolic properties of VLDL core remnants

Journal of Lipid Research, 2000
To determine the role of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) as an acceptor of lipolytic surface remnants of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) in the metabolism of VLDL core remnants, we examined the effect of HDL levels in the VLDL lipolysis mixture on 1 ...
