Low density lipoprotein misfolding and amyloidogenesis

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2008
ABSTRACT In early atherogenesis, subendothelial retention of lipidic droplets is associated with an inflammatory response‐to‐injury, culminating in the formation of foam cells and plaque. Low density lipoprotein (LDL) is the main constituent of subendothelial lipidic droplets.

Non-oxidative modification of native low-density lipoprotein by oxidized low-density lipoprotein [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1996
The oxidative modification of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, although little is known as yet about the precise mechanism of oxidation in vivo. The studies presented here demonstrate that, in the absence of cells or transition metals, oxidized LDL can modify native LDL through co-incubation in ...

Uptake of synthetic low density lipoprotein by leukemic stem cells — a potential stem cell targeted drug delivery strategy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Chronic Myeloid Leukemia (CML) stem/progenitor cells, which over-express Bcr-Abl, respond to imatinib by a reversible block in proliferation without significant apoptosis.

Intracellular trafficking of pigeon β-very low density lipoprotein and low density lipoprotein at low and high concentrations in pigeon macrophages

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2000
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 ...

Coronary artery endothelial dysfunction is positively correlated with low density lipoprotein and inversely correlated with high density lipoprotein subclass particles measured by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
OBJECTIVE: The association between cholesterol and endothelial dysfunction remains controversial. We tested the hypothesis that lipoprotein subclasses are associated with coronary endothelial dysfunction.

Relation between insulin resistance and fast-migrating LDL subfraction as characterized by capillary isotachophoresis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
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.

Lipids and Lipoproteins in Health and Disease: Focus on Targeting Atherosclerosis

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
Despite advances in pharmacotherapy, intervention devices and techniques, residual cardiovascular risks still cause a large burden on public health. Whilst most guidelines encourage achieving target levels of specific lipids and lipoproteins to reduce ...

Effect of Early Enteral Feeding on Apolipoprotein AI Levels and High-Density Lipoprotein Heterogeneity in Preterm Infants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Background/Aim: We have previously shown that infants receiving total parenteral nutrition have low apolipoprotein Al levels which are associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL) class distributions as in lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase ...

Differences in the metabolism of oxidatively modified low density lipoprotein and acetylated low density lipoprotein by human endothelial cells: inhibition of cholesterol esterification by oxidatively modified low density lipoprotein.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1989
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 ...

The metabolic inter-relationships between changes in waist circumference, triglycerides, insulin sensitivity and small, dense low-density lipoprotein particles with acute weight loss in clinically obese children and adolescents. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
OBJECTIVE: Small, dense low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particles are highly atherogenic and strongly associated with obesity-related dyslipidemia. The metabolic inter-relationships between weight loss induced changes in waist circumference, triglycerides,
