High density lipoprotein metabolism in low density lipoprotein receptor-deficient mice1[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2014
The LDL receptor (LDLR) and scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) play physiological roles in LDL and HDL metabolism in vivo. In this study, we explored HDL metabolism in LDLR-deficient mice in comparison with WT littermates.

The hepatoadrenal syndrome: A common yet unrecognized clinical condition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Objective: Adrenal failure is common in critically ill patients, particularly those with sepsis. As liver failure and sepsis are both associated with increased circulating levels of endotoxin and proinflammatory mediators and reduced levels of apoprotein-

Localization of the PE methylation pathway and SR-BI to the canalicular membrane

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2003
To better understand the regulation of biliary phospholipid and cholesterol excretion, canalicular membranes were isolated from the livers of C57BL/6J mice and abundant proteins separated by SDS-PAGE and identified by matrix-assisted laser desorption ...

A gut feeling for drugs that have metabolic benefits

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Resveratrol (REV) is a natural polyphenol with anti-obesity effects. However, the mechanisms remain unclear due to its low bioavailability and the lack of defined membrane-bound or nuclear receptors.

Adenovirus-mediated hepatic overexpression of scavenger receptor class B type I accelerates chylomicron metabolism in C57BL/6J mice

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
The function of scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) in mediating the selective uptake of HDL cholesteryl esters is well established. In SR-BI-deficient mice, we recently observed a delayed postprandial triglyceride (TG) response, suggesting an ...

Targeting neuroinflammation in Alzheimer’s disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Almost 47 million people suffer from dementia worldwide, with an estimated new case diagnosed every 3.2 seconds. Alzheimer’s disease (AD) accounts for approximately 60%–80% of all dementia cases. Given this evidence, it is clear dementia represents one

Regulation and splicing of scavenger receptor class B type I in human macrophages and atherosclerotic plaques

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2005
Background The protective role of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) in the cardiovascular system is related to its role in the reverse transport of cholesterol from the arterial wall to the liver for subsequent excretion via the bile.

Three polymethoxyflavones from the peel of Citrus reticulata “Chachi” inhibits oxidized low-density lipoprotein-induced macrophage-derived foam cell formation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Foam cell formation is the hallmark of the development and progression of atherosclerosis. The aim of this study was to investigate the regulatory effects of three polymethoxyflavones (PMFs), namely, tangeretin (TAN), 5,6,7,3′,4′,5′-hexamethoxyflavone ...

Primary hepatocytes as targets for hepatitis C virus replication [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Much of our current understanding of hepatitis C virus (HCV) replication has hailed from the use of a small number of cloned viral genomes and transformed hepatoma cell lines.

Quantitative analysis of SR-BI-dependent HDL retroendocytosis in hepatocytes and fibroblasts

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2006
Previous studies have suggested that HDL retroendocytosis may play a role in scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI)-dependent selective lipid uptake in a cell-specific manner.
