Phagocytosis of aged human neutrophils by macrophages is mediated by a novel "charge-sensitive" recognition mechanism [PDF]

, 1989
The removal of neutrophils and their histotoxic contents from the inflamed site is a prerequisite for resolution of tissue injury, and a point at which factors critical to the pathogenesis of chronic inflammation may act.

Regulation of hepatic cholesterol and lipoprotein metabolism in ethinyl estradiol-treated rats.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1989
The regulation of hepatic cholesterol and lipoprotein metabolism was studied in the ethinyl estradiol-treated rat in which low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptors are increased many fold.

Biomimetic Core–Shell Liposome Nanoparticles Deplete Lipoproteins and Enhance the Purity of Extracellular Vesicles from Human Blood

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Lipoprotein‐mimicking nanoparticles (SL‐NPs), comprising Fe3O4@SiO2 cores coated with liposomal bilayers, selectively capture lipoproteins through protein corona formation. The resulting SL‐NP‐lipoprotein complexes can be removed by low‐speed centrifugation, thereby enhancing the purity of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) isolated from human serum ...

Genetic variation at the apolipoprotein B gene and associations with coronary heart disease and its factors. [PDF]

, 1996
PhDCoronary heart disease (CED) is the major cause of mortality in Western societies. The main risk factors are plasma lipoprotein concentrations, smoking, blood pressure and family history.

Class A scavenger receptors mediate cell adhesion via activation of Gi/o and formation of focal adhesion complexes

Journal of Lipid Research, 2002
Class A macrophage scavenger receptors (SR-A) are multifunctional receptors with roles in modified lipoprotein uptake, innate immunity, and macrophage adhesion.

From Cell‐Derived Vesicles to Hybrid Nanovectors: Biological Membranes as Functional Blueprints for Gene Delivery

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Biologically derived and hybrid nonviral nanovectors are examined as distinct but convergent design approaches. Integrating synthetic components with biologically functionalized membranes allows efficient interactions with complex cellular environments.

Identification and properties of the proline664-leucine mutant LDL receptor in South Africans of Indian origin.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1992
The incidence of familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is high among South African Indians. The proline664-leucine low density lipoprotein (LDL)-receptor mutation was detected in four apparently unrelated Indian FH families in South Africa.

Silicone Breast Implants as a Model System for Understanding Polymer Permeation in Soft Materials In Vivo

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Silicone breast implants are presented as a model system for understanding polymer permeation in vivo. Rather than representing material failure, “gel bleed” emerges from solution–diffusion transport‐mediated. By integrating polymer architecture, physicochemical transport, and biointerfacial processes, this review provides a unified framework that ...

Effects of 1,2-cyclohexanedione modification on the metabolism of very low density lipoprotein apolipoprotein B: potential role of receptors in intermediate density lipoprotein catabolism.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1985
The conversion of very low density (VLDL) to low density lipoproteins (LDL) is a two-step process. The first step is mediated by lipoprotein lipase, but the mechanism responsible for the second is obscure.

Near‐Infrared Light‐Activated Polydopamine Nanoparticles Conjugated With Transferrin Peptides for Enhanced Brain Accumulation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that Tf‐PDA NPs combine a receptor‐mediated targeting with mild photothermal activation to enhance nanoparticle accumulation in the brain. NIR‐activated Tf‐PDA NPs increase BBB permeability to NPs in vitro and in vivo without inducing cytotoxicity or adverse immune responses.
