Prevention of low density lipoprotein aggregation by high density lipoprotein or apolipoprotein A-I.
We have shown previously that low density lipoprotein (LDL) subjected to vortexing forms self-aggregates that are avidly phagocytosed by macrophages. That phagocytic uptake is mediated by the LDL receptor.

Carbamylated low-density lipoprotein induces endothelial dysfunction.
AIMS Cardiovascular events remain the leading cause of death in Western world. Atherosclerosis is the most common underlying complication driven by low-density lipoproteins (LDL) disturbing vascular integrity.

The proportion of the electronegative low density lipoprotein [LDL(−)] subfraction, which is atherogenic, is increased in type 2 diabetes but is not reduced by glycemic control.

Acetylated-low density lipoprotein (Ac-LDL) is taken up by macrophages and endothelial cells via the "scavenger cell pathway" of LDL metabolism. In this report, aortic and microvascular endothelial cells internalized and degraded 7-15 times more [125I ...

After exposure to low density lipoprotein (LDL) that had been minimally modified by oxidation (MM-LDL), human endothelial cells (EC) and smooth muscle cells (SMC) cultured separately or together produced 2- to 3-fold more monocyte chemotactic activity ...

Foam cell formation occurs in vitro at lipoprotein concentrations above 50 μg/ml in pigeon macrophages. Hypothetically, intracellular trafficking of lipoproteins at higher concentrations may differ from uptake of lipoproteins associated with low ...

Role of oxidised low density lipoprotein in atherogenesis.
Overview of the concept ofoxidative modification ofLDL There can be no doubt now that there is a continuum of increasing risk for complications ofatherosclerosis when plasma cholesterol levels exceed 160-180 mg/dl. Many types of experimental and clinical

The rate of degradation of oxidatively modified low density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL) by human endothelial cells was similar to that of unmodified low density lipoprotein (LDL), and was approximately 2-fold greater than the rate of degradation of acetylated ...

A highly electronegative fraction of human plasma LDLs, designated L5, has distinctive biological activity that includes induction of apoptosis in bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAECs).
