Apolipoprotein E and cardiovascular disease
Apolipoprotein E is a polymorphic glycoprotein who interacts with the lipoprotein receptors (LRP-Receptor Related Protein) and the receptors for low density lipoproteins of (LDL receptors). When lipoproteins bring up the receptors begins lipids captation

Three patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia: Genomic sequencing and kindred analysis. [PDF]
BackgroundHomozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) is an inherited recessive condition associated with extremely high levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol in affected individuals.

PPARα promotes KLF11 expression and recruits KLF11 and YAP1 to form a transcription complex, where KLF11 acts as a brake in PPARα‐YAP1‐mediated glycolysis. Wogonin reshapes the metabolism of macrophages from glycolysis to fatty acid oxidation via activation of the PPARα‐KLF11‐YAP1 pathway, by which wogonin reduces inflammation and foam cell formation ...

Endocytosis mediated by both LDL receptors (LDLRs) and transferrin receptors (TfRs) occurs in clathrin-coated pits and requires specific tyrosine-based internalization sequences located in the cytoplasmic domain of these receptors.

FABP4 as a Mediator of Lipid Metabolism and Pregnant Uterine Dysfunction in Obesity
Obesity during late pregnancy contributes to uterine smooth muscle dysfunction, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. This study identifies fatty acid binding protein 4 (FABP4) as a key player in the process, mediating excessive fatty acid uptake, lipid accumulation, and mitochondrial dysfunction in myometrial cells. FABP4 could be a novel uterine

Genetic obesity increases pancreatic expression of mitochondrial proteins which regulate cholesterol efflux in BRIN-BD11 insulinoma cells [PDF]
Pancreatic β-cells are sensitive to fluctuations in cholesterol content, which can damage the insulin secretion pathway, contributing to the aetiology of type 2 diabetes mellitus.

The present study shows that macrophage WEE1 drives NF‐κB activation and inflammatory atherosclerosis by directly phosphorylating p65 at S536. This finding illustrates a macrophage‐specific WEE1‐p65 axis in regulating inflammatory atherosclerosis and points out new directions to broaden the clinical applications for WEE1 inhibitors in atherosclerosis ...
