Metabolic Consequences of Rheumatoid Arthritis
Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) may have metabolic disruption, which can contribute to adverse long‐term outcomes, for multiple reasons. Patients with RA appear to have a higher risk of sarcopenia, type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, and hypertension. Systemic inflammation in RA can cause a “lipid paradox,” with reduced low‐

Childhood Obesity and Familial Hypercholesterolemia: Genetic Diseases that Contribute to Cardiovascular Disease [PDF]
Childhood obesity occurs as the result of an imbalance between caloric intake and energy expenditure. Genetic risk factors for obesity have become an area of research due to its permanency.

Previously we have reported on a kindred with hypobetalipoproteinemia in which three sisters were found to be compound heterozygotes for two newly described truncated forms of apoB. apoB-40 and apoB-89.

LDL receptor-related protein-1 regulates NFκB and microRNA-155 in macrophages to control the inflammatory response [PDF]
LDL receptor-related protein-1 (LRP1) is an endocytic and cell-signaling receptor. In mice in which LRP1 is deleted in myeloid cells, the response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) was greatly exacerbated.

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

The low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor is part of a family of proteins that mediate the uptake of lipoproteins into cells. In this paper we have demonstrated the over-expression in E. coli of a rat LDL receptor fusion protein that contains the region

Lipids and lipoproteins may play a role in the neuropathology of Alzheimer’s disease
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and other classes of dementia are important public health problems with overwhelming social, physical, and financial effects for patients, society, and their families and caregivers. The pathophysiology of AD is poorly understood

Effect of probucol on LDL oxidation and atherosclerosis in LDL receptor-deficient mice [PDF]
Probucol is a powerful inhibitor of atherosclerosis in a number of animal models. However, it is unknown whether this is due to the strong antioxidant protection of low density lipoprotein (LDL), to antioxidant effects in the artery wall, or to cellular effects not shared by other antioxidants. To investigate whether murine models are suitable to study
