The role of ATP-binding cassette transporter A2 in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia multidrug resistance
Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) is one of the most prevalent hematologic malignancies in children. Although the cure rate of ALL has improved over the past decades, the most important reason for ALL treatment failure is multidrug resistance (MDR) phenomenon. The current study aims to explain the mechanisms involved in multidrug resistance of childhood ALL, and introduces ATP-binding cassette...
متن کاملATP-binding cassette transporter A1: regulation of cholesterol efflux.
The ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) is involved in the regulation of cholesterol efflux from cells. Mutations in ABCA1 give rise to familial high-density lipoprotein (HDL) deficiency and Tangier disease, which is characterized by very low levels of HDL in plasma and cholesteryl ester accumulation in tonsils and other reticuloendothelial cells. The mechanism of action of ABCA1 is sti...
متن کاملPolyunsaturated fatty acids and acetoacetate downregulate the expression of the ATP-binding cassette transporter A1.
Low HDL cholesterol is a frequent cardiovascular risk factor in diabetes. Because of its pivotal role for the regulation of HDL plasma levels, we investigated in vivo and in vitro regulation of the ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) by insulin and metabolites accumulating in diabetes. Compared with euglycemic control mice, ABCA1 gene expression was severely decreased in the liver and p...
متن کاملEffects of pravastatin on the expression of ATP-binding cassette transporter A1.
In vitro inhibition of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase causes the suppression of liver X receptor (LXR) activity. Because LXR regulates the expression of ATP-binding cassette transporter (ABC) A1, which is involved in the high-density lipoprotein-related reverse cholesterol transport pathway, we examined the effects of an HMG-CoA reductase inhibitor pravastatin on ABCA...
متن کاملInterleukin-18 and Interleukin-12 Together Downregulate ATP-Binding Cassette Transporter A1 Expression Through the Interleukin
therosclerotic cardiovascular disease is one of the major causes of death in developed countries. Lipid accumulation, foam cell formation and inflammation are recognized as major features of atherosclerosis.1 Inflammatory cells, mainly macrophages and T cells, produce a wide range of inflammatory cytokines in atherosclerotic lesions, which contributes significantly to the progress of the diseas...
