Interaction of cholesterol with sphingosine

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
Molecular associations between sphingomyelin and cholesterol provide a molecular basis for the colocalization of these lipids in plasma membrane microdomains (lipid rafts) and for the inhibitory effect of sphingomyelin on the intestinal absorption of ...

Meta-analysis of 49 549 individuals imputed with the 1000 Genomes Project reveals an exonic damaging variant in ANGPTL4 determining fasting TG levels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background So far, more than 170 loci have been associated with circulating lipid levels through genomewide association studies (GWAS). These associations are largely driven by common variants, their function is often not known, and many are likely to be

Genetic variation at the NPC1L1 gene locus, plasma lipoproteins, and heart disease risk in the elderly[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2010
Niemann-Pick C1-like 1 protein (NPC1L1) plays a critical role in intestinal cholesterol absorption. Our objective was to examine whether five variants (-133A>G, -18A>C, L272L, V1296V, and U3_28650A>G) at the NPC1L1 gene have effects on lipid levels ...

Pathophysiological importance of bile cholesterol reabsorption: hepatic NPC1L1-exacerbated steatosis and decreasing VLDL-TG secretion in mice fed a high-fat diet

open access: yesLipids in Health and Disease, 2019
Background Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is one of the most common liver diseases worldwide, although its pathogenesis remains to be elucidated.

Polymorphisms in the WNK1 gene are asociated with blood pressure variation and urinary potassium excretion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
WNK1 - a serine/threonine kinase involved in electrolyte homeostasis and blood pressure (BP) control - is an excellent candidate gene for essential hypertension (EH). We and others have previously reported association between WNK1 and BP variation. Using
