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

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 ...

An Oral Formulation of Angiotensin-(1-7) Reverses Corpus Cavernosum Damages Induced by Hypercholesterolemia

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Fabiana Pereira Da Costa Fraga, Danielle Gomes Passos Silva

Introduction The renin angiotensin system plays a crucial role in erectile function. It has been shown that elevated angiotensin-II levels contribute to the development of erectile dysfunction (ED). Oppositely, angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-[1-7]) mediates penile ...

Hypercholesterolemic Mice Exhibit Lymphatic Vessel Dysfunction and Degeneration

Melody Swartz, Joseph Rutkowski, Sai Reddy

Lymphatic vessels are essential for lipid absorption and transport. Despite increasing numbers of observations linking lymphatic vessels and lipids, little research has been devoted to address how dysregulation of lipid balance in the blood, ie, dyslipidem ...

Mathematical and numerical models for transfer of low-density lipoproteins through the arterial walls: A new methodology for the model set up with applications to the study of disturbed lumenal flow

Alfio Quarteroni, Paolo Zunino

In this work we introduce and discuss several mathematical models, based on partial differential equations, devised to study the coupled transport of macromolecules as low-density lipoproteins in the blood stream and in the arterial walls. These models are ...

Production and characterization of astrocyte-derived human apolipoprotein E isoforms from immortalized astrocytes and their interactions with amyloid-beta

Hilal Lashuel

The apolipoprotein E (apoE) genotype is an important genetic risk factor for Alzheimer's disease (AD). In the central nervous system (CNS), most apoE is produced by astrocytes and is present in unique high-density lipoprotein (HDL)-like particles that have ...

Oiling the key hole

Françoise Gisou van der Goot Grunberg

Many bacteria have been found to interact with specialized domains, rich in cholesterol and sphingolipids, of the host plasma membrane, termed lipid rafts. The mechanisms that underlie this interaction are starting to be unravelled. In this issue, Hayward ...

Analysis of Lipoproteins by Capillary Zone Electrophoresis in Microfluidic Devices: Assey Development and Surfaces Roughness Measurements

Nico de Rooij

The development of a new assay for lipoproteins by capillary electrophoresis in fused-silica capillaries and in glass microdevices is described in this paper. The separation of low-density (LDL) and high-density (HDL) lipoproteins by capillary zone electro ...

Mechanism of action of fibrates on lipid and lipoprotein metabolism

Johan Auwerx, Kristina Schoonjans

Treatment with fibrates, a widely used class of lipid-modifying agents, results in a substantial decrease in plasma triglycerides and is usually associated with a moderate decrease in LDL cholesterol and an increase in HDL cholesterol concentrations. Recen ...

Alterations in lipoprotein metabolism in peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha-deficient mice

Johan Auwerx

The peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-alpha (PPARalpha) controls gene expression in response to a diverse class of compounds collectively referred to as peroxisome proliferators. Whereas most known peroxisome proliferators are of exogenous origin ...
