Differences in the metabolism of oxidatively modified low density lipoprotein and acetylated low density lipoprotein by human endothelial cells: inhibition of cholesterol esterification by oxidatively modified low density lipoprotein.
The rate of degradation of oxidatively modified low density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL) by human endothelial cells was similar to that of unmodified low density lipoprotein (LDL), and was approximately 2-fold greater than the rate of degradation of acetylated LDL (Ac-LDL). While LDL and Ac-LDL both stimulated cholesterol esterification in endothelial cells, Ox-LDL inhibited cholesterol esterification ...
متن کاملCarbohydrate composition of circulating multiple-modified low-density lipoprotein
Atherogenic modification of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis, as modified LDL, but not native LDL, induces pronounced accumulation of cholesterol and lipids in the arterial wall. It is likely that LDL particles undergo multiple modifications in human plasma: desialylation, changes in size and density, acquisition of negative electric char...
متن کاملSensitive detection of oxidatively modified low density lipoprotein using a monoclonal antibody.
We have established a new method capable of measuring the very low concentrations of oxidized low density lipoprotein (OxLDL). In our previous study, we obtained a novel murine monoclonal antibody against oxidized lipoproteins (Itabe, H. et al. 1994. J. Biol. Chem. 269: 15274-15279). The epitope of this antibody resides in oxidized products of phosphatidylcholine that can form complexes with po...
متن کاملOxidatively modified low density lipoprotein is a chemoattractant for human T lymphocytes.
Oxidatively modified low density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL) is a known chemoattractant for monocytes. Here we demonstrate, using a modified Boyden chamber assay, that human peripheral blood T lymphocytes, but not B lymphocytes, also respond chemotactically to Ox-LDL, showing a threefold increase over control and an optimum response at 10 micrograms/ml. Copper and endothelial cell-oxidized LDL and bet...
متن کاملIsolation, characterization, and functional assessment of oxidatively modified subfractions of circulating low-density lipoproteins.
OBJECTIVE Current evidence suggests that oxidatively modified human plasma low-density lipoproteins (ox-LDLs) are proatherogenic and cytotoxic to endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cells. The present study describes a method using ion-exchange chromatography that is capable of large-scale subfractionation of LDL for adequate analyses of composition or bioactivities. METHODS AND RESULTS LD...
