High-density lipoprotein aggregated by oxidation induces degeneration of neuronal cells.
We have previously reported that high-density lipoprotein (HDL) exhibits antineuritogenic effects on chicken cerebral cells in culture. In the present study, we show the effects of HDLs, oxidized by UV irradiation or heating, on chicken cerebral neurons in culture. Both treatments produced several physical and chemical changes in the HDLs, i.e., formation of lipid peroxides, enlargement of HDL ...
متن کاملAntioxidant Effects of Vitamins C and E on the Low-Density Lipoprotein Oxidation Mediated by Myeloperoxidase
Background: Oxidative modification of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) appears to be an early step in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Meanwhile, myeloperoxidase (MPO)-catalyzed reaction is one of the potent pathway for LDL oxidation in vivo. The aim of this study was to evaluate in vitro antioxidant effects of vitamins C and E on LDL oxidation mediated by MPO. Methods: MPO was isolated from f...
متن کاملLow density lipoprotein and very low density lipoprotein are selectively bound by aggregated C-reactive protein
C-reactive protein (CRP), the classical acute-phase protein, can bind phospholipids by virtue of its specific, calcium-dependent reactivity with phosphorylcholine residues. However, analysis of acute-phase serum by gel filtration and by density gradient ultracentrifugation showed that the CRP was in a free, uncomplexed form, despite the coexistent presence of the various classes of serum lipopr...
متن کاملPorphyromonas gingivalis accelerates atherosclerosis through oxidation of high-density lipoprotein
Purpose The aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis) to induce oxidation of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and to determine whether the oxidized HDL induced by P. gingivalis exhibited altered antiatherogenic function or became proatherogenic. Methods P. gingivalis and THP-1 monocytes were cultured, and the extent of HDL oxidation induced by P. ...
متن کاملOxidation of low-density lipoprotein and macrophage derived foam cells.
Copper-oxidized LDL has many of the characteristics of the modified LDL generated in the artery wall during the initial stages of atherosclerosis. It is not, however, a chemically defined species but shows significant variations in both its chemical composition and behaviour in biological systems depending upon the extent to which the peroxidation reaction has occurred (Fig. 1). Taking care to ...
