Enhancement of the Binding of Triglyceride-rich Lipoproteins to the Very Low Density Lipoprotein Receptor by Apolipoprotein E and Lipoprotein Lipase (*)

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1995
The low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor plays a crucial role in cholesterol metabolism. A related protein, designated the very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) receptor, that specifically binds apolipoprotein (apo) E has recently been characterized and ...

Beyond HDL-cholesterol increase: phospholipid enrichment and shift from HDL3 to HDL2 in alcohol consumers

Journal of Lipid Research, 2007
The reduction of cardiovascular mortality associated with moderate alcohol consumption is chiefly thought to be mediated by an increase of high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-CH).

Modelling the inflammatory process in atherosclerosis: a nonlinear renewal equation [PDF]

arXiv, 2017
We present here a population structured model to describe the dynamics of macrophage cells. The model involves the interactions between modified LDL, monocytes/macrophages, cytokines and foam cells. The key assumption is that the individual macrophage dynamics depends on the amount of lipoproteins it has internalized.

PCSK9 Promotes the Malignancy of Triple‐negative Breast Cancer Cells by Reducing Cholesterol Levels at the Plasma Membrane to Activate EGFR and HER3

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By decreasing cholesterol and lipid raft levels in the plasma membrane, proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) boosts human epidermal growth factor receptor 1 and 3 (EGFR and HER3) activation, driving tumor growth and metastasis in triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC).

Serum lipoprotein accumulation in the livers of orotic acid-fed rats

Journal of Lipid Research, 1971
This study provides confirmation of previous observations that showed that rats fed a diet containing 1% orotic acid for 7 days develop a fatty liver and that there is an inhibition of the secretion of low density lipoproteins without altering general ...

Catalytically inactive lipoprotein lipase expression in muscle of transgenic mice increases very low density lipoprotein uptake: direct evidence that lipoprotein lipase bridging occurs in vivo.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1998
Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) is the central enzyme in plasma triglyceride hydrolysis. In vitro studies have shown that LPL also can enhance lipoprotein uptake into cells via pathways that are independent of catalytic activity but require LPL as a molecular ...

Characterization of Chicken Portomicron Remnant and Very Low Density Lipoprotein Remnant

The Journal of Poultry Science, 2009
Portomicron remnant and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) remnant in chickens were prepared by the method using ultracentrifugation (d<1.019) following an in vitro incubation of portomicron or VLDL prepared from chicken plasma with chicken ...

Predictive associations between serum fatty acids and lipoproteins in healthy non-obese Norwegians: implications for cardiovascular health [PDF]

, 2015
A battery of methods for multivariate data analysis has been used to assess the associations between concentrations of fatty acids (FAs) and lipoprotein subclasses and particle size in serum for a normolipidemic population of ethnic Norwegians living in ...
