Electronegative Low-Density Lipoprotein Increases C-Reactive Protein Expression in Vascular Endothelial Cells through the LOX-1 Receptor
OBJECTIVES Increased plasma C-reactive protein (CRP) levels are associated with the occurrence and severity of acute coronary syndrome. We investigated whether CRP can be generated in vascular endothelial cells (ECs) after exposure to the most electronegative subfraction of low-density lipoprotein (LDL), L5, which is atherogenic to ECs. Because L5 and CRP are both ligands for the lectin-like ox...
متن کاملMediation of electronegative low-density lipoprotein signaling by LOX-1: a possible mechanism of endothelial apoptosis.
The lectin-like oxidized LDL receptor LOX-1 mediates endothelial cell (EC) uptake of experimentally prepared copper-oxidized LDL (oxLDL). To confirm the atherogenic role of this receptor cloned against copper-oxLDL, we examined whether it mediates EC uptake of L5, an electronegative LDL abundant in dyslipidemic but not normolipidemic human plasma. Hypercholesterolemic (LDL-cholesterol, >160 mg/...
متن کاملChronic Aerobic Exercise Decreases Lectin-Like Low Density Lipoprotein (LOX-1) Receptor Expression in Heart of Diabetic Rat
Background: Overexpression of lectin-like low density lipoprotein (LOX-1) receptor plays an important role in hyperglycemia-induced vascular complications such as atherosclerosis. Based on the beneficial effects of exercise on preventing cardiovascular complications of diabetes, we aimed to examine the protective effects of aerobic exercise on expression of LOX-1 receptor and production of free...
متن کاملLigand specificity of LOX-1, a novel endothelial receptor for oxidized low density lipoprotein.
Endothelial dysfunction, or activation, elicited by oxidized low density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL) and its lipid constituents has been shown to play a key role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. We recently have identified a novel receptor for Ox-LDL-designated lectin-like Ox-LDL receptor (LOX-1) in vascular endothelial cells. To examine ligand specificity of LOX-1, we established CHO cell line...
متن کاملLectin-like oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor 1 (LOX-1) expression in human articular chondrocytes.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the involvement of oxidized low density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) and the expression of its receptor lectin-like oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor 1 (LOX-1) in osteoarthritis, by determining the ox-LDL in synovial fluid and the expression of LOX-1 mRNA and protein in osteoarthritic as well as normal cartilage. In addition, the effect of ox-LDL on chondrocyte viabilit...
