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/...
We identified previously an up-regulation in lysyl oxidase (LOX) expression,an extracellular matrix remodeling enzyme, in a highly invasive/metastatic human breast cancer cell line, MDA-MB-231, compared with MCF-7, a poorly invasive/nonmetastatic breast cancer cell line. In this study, we demonstrate that the mRNA expression of LOX and other LOX family members [lysyl oxidase-like (LOXL), LOXL2,...
A specific lectinlike endothelial receptor for oxidized low density lipoprotein (LOX-1), distinct from the scavenger receptor in monocytes/macrophages, has been identified and cloned. In this study, we examined the regulation of LOX-1 by oxidized low density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) and determined the role of LOX-1 in ox-LDL–induced apoptosis of cultured human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCA...
We hypothesized that the reciprocal association between adiponectin and lectin-like oxidized LDL (ox-LDL) receptor (LOX)-1 contributes to the regulation of aortic endothelial dysfunction in atherosclerosis. To test this hypothesis, endothelium-dependent (ACh) and endothelium-independent (sodium nitroprusside) vasorelaxation of isolated aortic rings from control mice, apolipoprotein E (ApoE) kno...
Several studies have suggested that high dietary fat intake, particularly essential fatty acids, is associated with pancreatic cancer development and growth. Our previous studies have demonstrated that blockade of either the 5-lipoxygenase (LOX) or 12-LOX pathway of arachidonic acid metabolism inhibited pancreatic cancer cell proliferation and induced apoptosis. This study investigated the unde...
Human 5-lipoxygenase (5-LOX) oxidizes arachidonic acid to 5S-hydroperoxy-6 E,8 Z,11 Z,14 Z-eicosatetraenoic acid (5-HpETE) and leukotriene (LT) A4. In neutrophils, LTA4 is further converted to the potent chemoattractant LTB4. These cells also contain the heme enzyme myeloperoxidase (MPO), which produces several potent oxidants such as hypochlorous acid (HOCl), which are involved in pathogen def...
Recently, we reported the induction of reticulocyte type 15-lipoxygenase (15-Lox-1) in a human colorectal carcinoma cell line that had been stimulated by butyrate to undergo apoptosis and cell differentiation (H. Kamitani et al., J. Biol. Chem., 273: 21569–21577, 1998). To determine if 15-Lox-1 is expressed in human colorectal cancer tissue, 21 matched pairs of colorectal tumor and adjacent nor...
Lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1) regulates growth of a variety of cells and is important in inflammation, oxidative stress, and tissue remodeling. Recent studies show that LOX-1 deletion limits cardiac remodeling after sustained hypertension. We posited that LOX-1 may affect cardiac fibroblast growth and collagen secretion. To examine this postulate, we studied gr...
The constitutive expression or overactivation of cyclooxygenase (COX) and lipoxygenase (LOX) enzymes results in aberrant metabolism arachidonic acid poor prognosis melanoma. Our aim is to compare the vitro effects selective COX-1 (acetylsalicylic acid), COX-2 (meloxicam), 5-LOX (MK-886 AA-861), 12-LOX (baicalein) 15-LOX (PD-146176) inhibition terms proliferation (SRB assay), mitochondrial viabi...
Lysyl oxidase (LOX) serves an important role in remodeling the extracellular matrix and angiogenesis in various types of cancer; however, whether LOX is involved in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis remains unknown. In order to investigate this in the present study, β‑aminopropionitrile, an inhibitor of LOX, was injected intraperitoneally into rats with type II collagen‑induced arthritis...
