Effect of Lycopene on Formation of Low Density Lipoprotein-Copper Complex in Copper Catalyzed Peroxidation of Low Density Lipoprotein, as in vitro Experiment
Background: A great deal of evidence has indicated that oxidatively modified LDL plays a critical role in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. Antioxidants that can prevent LDL oxidation may act as antiatherogens. Copper is a candidate for oxidizing LDL in atherosclerotic lesions. The binding of copper ions to LDL is usually thought to be a prerequisite for LDL oxidation by copper...
متن کاملNeutron scattering study of human serum low density lipoprotein.
Regions of different proton density in the low density lipoprotein (LDL) particle from human serum have been determined by neutron scattering. From measurements in various H2O/D2O mixtures, the LDL particle appears to be quasi-spherical, with the centers of gravity of the hydrocarbon and polar regions coinciding. The average volume occupied by a particle was found to be 3.2 X 10-6 A-3, with the...
متن کاملSerum level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in hypertensive retinopathy.
Increased serum level of low-density lipoprotein is associated with coronary artery disease. There are, however, no reports on whether the same is true in hypertensive retinopathy. A cross-sectional comparative study was carried out to evaluate the serum level status of low-density lipoprotein in hypertensive retinopathy, including 30 randomly selected subjects with hypertensive retinopathy; ag...
متن کاملSerum folate and low-density lipoprotein particle size.
AIM Nutritional parameters, such as B-vitamins, have not been studied for an association with low-density lipoprotein (LDL) particle size. The present study explored whether serum vitamin levels, including folate and vitamin B-12, could be associated with LDL particle size. METHODS Using a randomly selected population of 255 hospital workers, we collected detailed lipid profiles, including tr...
متن کاملPunicalagin Induces Serum Low-Density Lipoprotein Influx to Macrophages
High levels of circulating low-density lipoprotein (LDL) are a primary initiating event in the development of atherosclerosis. Recently, the antiatherogenic effect of polyphenols has been shown to be exerted via a mechanism unrelated to their antioxidant capacity and to stem from their interaction with specific intracellular or plasma proteins. In this study, we investigated the interaction of ...
