EnginEEring and natural SciEncES Triglyceride Regulation of Lysosomal Cholesterol in THP-1 Macrophages
The central question I investigated in my research this semester was how the cholesterol and triglyceride metabolic pathways interact in macrophages when cholesterol levels are high. What factors prevent or enhance macrophage ability to regulate cholesterol metabolism? We have preliminary evidence that excessive cholesterol accumulation in macrophages alters triglyceride metabolism in these cel...

discussions in comparison to the control of wy14643, sandoz58-035, c9 and t11-cla, epa increased the pparα mrna levels (p = 0.024, p = 0.041, p = 0.043, and p = 0.004, respectively), even though, la had no significant effect on the pparα mrna expression (p = 0.489). materials and methods this experimental study investigated the effects of c9, t11-conjugated linoleic acid (c9, t11-cla). alpha li...
متن کاملCholesterol metabolism and efflux in human THP-1 macrophages.
This study has investigated in detail factors regulating accumulation, esterification, and mobilization of cholesterol in human THP-1 macrophages. Human THP-1 monocytes were differentiated into macrophages and then cholesterol enriched by exposure to acetylated LDL (AcLDL), together with [3H]free cholesterol (FC). Although THP-1 macrophages accumulated FC and esterified cholesterol (EC), assess...
متن کاملRegulation of lysosomal a-mannosidase in macrophages
h 0 1 2 3 4 ATPase activity present in the outer-membrane fraction is probably due to partial disruption of the inner membrane by the digitonin extraction procedure. It is suggested that part of the apparent ADPase activity of intact mitochondria is mediated via ATPase, presumably in conjunction with adenylate kinase. In addition, the mitochondrial-outer-membrane contains a distinct ADPase not ...
متن کاملThe Effect of Unsaturated Fatty Acids on Molecular Markers of Cholesterol Homeostasis in THP-1 Macrophages
BACKGROUND Macrophages derived foam cells are key factors in the maladaptive immune and inflammatory response. OBJECTIVES The study of the cholesterol homeostasis and the molecular factor involved in these cells is very important in understanding the process of atherosclerosis and the mechanisms that prevent its occurrence. MATERIALS AND METHODS This experimental study investigated the effe...
