The Exchangeable Apolipoprotein Nplp2 Sustains Lipid Flow and Heat Acclimation in Drosophila

Bruno Lemaitre, Jean Philippe Boquete, Samuel Rommelaere, Jérémie Piton

In ectotherms, increased ambient temperature requires the organism to consume substantial amounts of energy to sustain a higher metabolic rate, prevent cellular damage, and respond to heat stress. Here, we identify a heat-inducible apolipoprotein required ...

Solution structure of discoidal high-density lipoprotein particles with a shortened apolipoprotein A-I

Henning Paul-Julius Stahlberg

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) particles are cholesterol and lipid transport containers. Mature HDL particles destined for the liver develop through the formation of intermediate discoidal HDL particles, which are the primary acceptors for cholesterol. Her ...

The Sirt1 activator SRT3025 provides atheroprotection in Apoe(-/-) mice by reducing hepatic Pcsk9 secretion and enhancing Ldlr expression

Johan Auwerx, Kristina Schoonjans, Matthias Alexander Sokrates Stein, Tasneem Arsiwala

The deacetylase sirtuin 1 (Sirt1) exerts beneficial effects on lipid metabolism, but its roles in plasma LDL-cholesterol regulation and atherosclerosis are controversial. Thus, we applied the pharmacological Sirt1 activator SRT3025 in a mouse model of athe ...
