Decreased expression of breast cancer resistance protein in the duodenum in patients with obstructive cholestasis [PDF]
Background/Aims: The expression of transporters involved in bile acid homeostasis is differentially regulated during obstructive cholestasis. Since the drug efflux transporter breast cancer resistance protein (BCRP) is known to transport bile acids, we ...

An apolipoprotein A-I mimetic dose-dependently increases the formation of preβ1 HDL in human plasma
Preβ1 HDL is the initial plasma acceptor of cell-derived cholesterol in reverse cholesterol transport. Recently, small amphipathic peptides composed of D-amino acids have been shown to mimic apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) as a precursor for HDL formation ...

Cyclosporine A impairs the macrophage reverse cholesterol transport in mice by reducing sterol fecal excretion. [PDF]
Despite the efficacy in reducing acute rejection events in organ transplanted subjects, long term therapy with cyclosporine A is associated with increased atherosclerotic cardiovascular morbidity.

Pancreas transplantation modulates reverse cholesterol transport [PDF]
Hyperinsulinemia secondary to insulin resistance in type-II diabetes or in the metabolic syndrome is associated with the "atherogenetic lipoprotein phenotype": high triglycerides, small, dense low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol.

A Role of the Bile Salt Receptor FXR in Atherosclerosis [PDF]
This study reviews current insights into the role of bile salts and bile salt receptors on the progression and regression of atherosclerosis. Bile salts have emerged as important modifiers of lipid and energy metabolism.

Tachometer for Reverse Cholesterol Transport? [PDF]
Many clinical and epidemiological studies, as well as meta-analyses thereof, have shown the inverse relationship of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and apoliopoprotein (apo) A-I plasma levels with the risk of coronary artery disease.[1][1] HDL particles and their protein and ...

The Regulation of Reverse Cholesterol Transport and Cellular Cholesterol Homeostasis by MicroRNAs
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, non-coding RNAs that have the ability to post-transcriptionally regulate gene expression. Hundreds of miRNAs have been identified in humans and they are involved in the regulation of almost every process, including ...

Effects of flavonoids on cholesterol efflux capability
Reverse cholesterol transport (RCT), which plays a critical role in the export of cholesterol from peripheral cells, is one of the processes employed in the management and treatment of atherosclerosis.
