The ApoE receptors Vldlr and Apoer2 in central nervous system function and disease

Journal of Lipid Research, 2017
The LDL receptor (LDLR) family has long been studied for its role in cholesterol transport and metabolism; however, the identification of ApoE4, an LDLR ligand, as a genetic risk factor for late-onset Alzheimer's disease has focused attention on the role

Use of next-generation sequencing to detect LDLR gene copy number variation in familial hypercholesterolemia

Journal of Lipid Research, 2017
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a heritable condition of severely elevated LDL cholesterol, caused predominantly by autosomal codominant mutations in the LDL receptor gene (LDLR).

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.

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.

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.

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 ...

Cholesterol substrate pools and steroid hormone levels are normal in the face of mutational inactivation of NPC1 protein

Journal of Lipid Research, 2006
Mutational inactivation of NPC1 largely blocks the movement of LDL-derived cholesterol from the lysosome to the metabolically active, cytosolic pool of sterol that is the substrate for steroid hormone production.

The LXR-IDOL axis defines a clathrin-, caveolae-, and dynamin-independent endocytic route for LDLR internalization and lysosomal degradation

Journal of Lipid Research, 2013
Low density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol is taken up into cells via clathrin-mediated endocytosis of the LDL receptor (LDLR). Following dissociation of the LDLR-LDL complex, LDL is directed to lysosomes whereas the LDLR recycles to the plasma membrane ...

Effects of deletion of the Streptococcus pneumoniae lipoprotein diacylglyceryl transferase gene lgt on ABC transporter function and on growth in vivo [PDF]

, 2012
Lipoproteins are an important class of surface associated proteins that have diverse roles and frequently are involved in the virulence of bacterial pathogens.
