Rescue of mislocalized NPC1L1L1072T/L1168I.

open access: yes, 2014
A, HEK293 cells stably expressing hNPC1L1-EGFP (WT) or hNPC1L1L1072T/L1168I-EGFP (L1072T/L1168I) were incubated in the absence or presence of 10 µM fomiroid A for 24 h, and then plasma membranes (PM) were stained with CellMask Orange. The arrows show the

In Vivo Responsiveness to Ezetimibe Correlates with Niemann-Pick C1 Like-1 (NPC1L1) Binding Affinity: Comparison of Multiple Species NPC1L1 Orthologs

open access: yes, 2020
Ezetimibe is the first in class 2-azetidinone that decreases plasma cholesterol by blocking intestinal cholesterol absorption. Ezetimibe effectively reduces plasma cholesterol in several species including human, monkey, dog, hamster, rat, and mouse, but ...

Ο ρόλος της χοληστερόλης στο διμερισμό της πρωτεϊνης NPC1L1

open access: yes, 2007
Η απορρόφηση χοληστερόλης από το έντερο έχει σημαντικό ρόλο στον καθορισμό των επιπέδων χοληστερόλης στην κυκλοφορία. Πρόσφατα,κυκλοφόρησε ένας νέος θεραπευτικός παράγοντας η εζετιμίδη(ezetimibe)που μειώνει την απορρόφηση χοληστερόλης και τα επίπεδα ...

Association of NPC1L1 and HMGCR gene polymorphisms with coronary artery calcification in patients with premature triple-vessel coronary disease

open access: yesBMC Medical Genomics
Background Coronary artery calcification (CAC) is a highly specific marker of atherosclerosis. Niemann-Pick C1-like 1 (NPC1L1) and 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMGCR) are the therapeutic targets of ezetimibe and statins, respectively,

Flotillins play an essential role in Niemann-Pick C1-like 1-mediated cholesterol uptake

open access: yes, 2010
Dietary absorption is a major way for mammals to obtain cholesterol, which is mediated by Niemann-Pick C1-like 1 (NPC1L1) via vesicular endocytosis. One fundamental question in this process is how free cholesterol is efficiently taken up through the ...

Genetic variation in the cholesterol transporter NPC1L1, ischaemic vascular disease, and gallstone disease

open access: yes, 2015
AIMS: Ezetimibe reduces plasma levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol by inhibiting Niemann-Pick C1-Like protein 1 (NPC1L1), the transporter responsible for cholesterol uptake from the intestine into enterocytes and from the bile into ...

THE ROLE OF NIEMANN-PICK C1-LIKE 1 (NPC1L1) PROTEIN IN CHOLESTEROL TRANSPORT AND METABOLIC DISEASES

open access: yes, 2010
Niemann-Pick C1-Like 1 (NPC1L1) is a polytopic transmembrane protein critical for intestinal absorption of dietary and biliary cholesterol. Ezetimibe, by inhibiting NPC1L1 function, is widely used to lower blood cholesterol in humans.
