Comparison of the internalization efficiency of LDL and transferrin receptors on L2C guinea pig lymphocytes [PDF]

, 1986
We demonstrate that L2C lymphocytes have about 10-times more receptors for transferrin (TO than healthy lymphocytes, as has been shown in the case of LDL receptors. The dissociation constant is the same in the two cell types (about 4 × 10−7 M).

Gear‐Switch‐Integrated Dual‐Mode Three‐Wheeled Exoskeleton that Empowers Cyborg Insects with Enhanced Open‐Loop Locomotion Control Precision and Load Capacity

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Cyborg insects’ low open‐loop control precision and limited sensor payload hinder applications. This article introduces an exoskeleton that improves motion precision and payload capacity. With a 7.2 cm × 14 cm size, it enhances load capacity to over 400 g and enables high‐precision movement without feedback control, expanding application scenarios for ...

Characterization of lipoprotein receptors on rat Fu5AH hepatoma cells.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1987
The rat hepatoma cell line Fu5AH has the unusual property of accumulating massive amounts of cholesteryl ester upon incubation with hypercholesterolemic serum, and especially when incubated with beta-very low density lipoproteins (beta-VLDL) from ...

Effect of interleukin-6 receptor blockade on surrogates of vascular risk in rheumatoid arthritis: MEASURE, a randomised, placebo-controlled study [PDF]

, 2015
Objectives The interleukin-6 receptor (IL-6R) blocker tocilizumab (TCZ) reduces inflammatory disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) but elevates lipid concentrations in some patients.

A hepatoprotective experiment on taro vegetable (Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott) flower employing animal models by mitigating oxidative stress

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The antioxidant efficacy of Colocasia esculenta flower’s methanolic extract was assessed using 2,2′‐azino‐bis‐(3‐ethylbenzothiazoline‐6‐sulfonic) (ABTS) and 2,2‐diphenyl‐1‐picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) scavenging assay. The hepatoprotective effect was investigated by assessing liver injury indicators (amino transferase [ALT], aspartate amino transferase [AST],

Mechanism of LDL binding and release probed by structure-based mutagenesis of the LDL receptor[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2010
The LDL receptor (LDL-R) mediates cholesterol metabolism in humans by binding and internalizing cholesterol transported by LDL. Several different molecular mechanisms have been proposed for the binding of LDL to LDL-R at neutral plasma pH and for its ...

PCSK9 induces a pro-inflammatory response in macrophages [PDF]

, 2018
Intraplaque release of inflammatory cytokines from macrophages is implicated in atherogenesis by inducing the proliferation and migration of media smooth muscle cells (SMCs). PCSK9 is present and released by SMCs within the atherosclerotic plaque but its

Increased uptake of α-hydroxy aldehyde-modified low density lipoprotein by macrophage scavenger receptors

Journal of Lipid Research, 2000
Reactive aldehydes can be formed during the oxidation of lipids, glucose, and amino acids and during the nonenzymatic glycation of proteins. Low density lipoprotein (LDL) modified with malondialdehyde are taken up by scavenger receptors on macrophages ...

LDL receptor-related protein-1 regulates NFκB and microRNA-155 in macrophages to control the inflammatory response [PDF]

, 2016
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.
