The cellular mechanisms responsible for the lipoprotein-mediated stimulation of bile acid synthesis in cultured rat hepatocytes were investigated. Adding 280 micrograms/ml of cholesterol in the form of human or rat low density lipoprotein (LDL) to the culture medium increased bile acid synthesis by 1.8- and 1.6-fold, respectively. As a result of the uptake of LDL, the synthesis of [14C]choleste...
Oxidized low density lipoprotein (ox-LDL)-induced macrophage apoptosis contributes to the formation of atherosclerosis. Metformin, an antidiabetic drug, has been reported to attenuate lipid accumulation in macrophages. In this study, the effects of metformin on ox-LDL-induced macrophage apoptosis were investigated and the mechanisms involved in this process were examined. By performing flow cyt...
Scavenger receptors (ScRs) are a structurally unrelated family of receptors with the ability to bind modified low density lipoprotein (LDL) as well as a broad range of polyanionic ligands. CD68, whose expression is restricted to mononuclear phagocytes, is a unique ScR family member, owing to its lysosome associated membrane protein (LAMP)-like domain and predominant endosomal distribution. Knoc...
Cross talk between oxidized LDL (ox-LDL) and angiotensin II (Ang II) may be relevant in atherosclerosis. In this study, we examined the presence of a specific endothelial receptor for ox-LDL (LOX-1) and Ang II receptors in human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAECs). In addition, we studied the effect of Ang II on LOX-1 gene and protein expression. LOX-1 was consistently identified in HCAE...
Murine P388D1 macrophages have a receptor pathway that binds human hypertriglyceridemic very low density lipoproteins (HTG-VLDL) that is fundamentally distinct from the LDL receptor pathway. Trypsin-treated HTG-VLDL (tryp-VLDL), devoid of apolipoprotein (apo)-E, fail to bind to the LDL receptor, yet tryp-VLDL and HTG-VLDL cross-compete for binding to P388D1 macrophage receptors, indicating that...
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of exercise training on plasma removal of a cholesterol-rich nanoemulsion (LDE) that mimics low-density lipoprotein (LDL) lipid structure and binds to LDL receptors. LDE-derived cholesteryl ester plasma kinetics was studied in 24 exercise-trained and 20 sedentary male subjects. LDE labeled with [(14)C]cholesteryl ester was injected intrave...
Apoptosis of arterial cells induced by oxidized low density lipoproteins (OxLDL) is thought to contribute to the progression of atherosclerosis. However, most data on apoptotic effects and mechanisms of OxLDL were obtained with extensively oxidized LDL unlikely to occur in early stages of atherosclerotic lesions. We now demonstrate that mildly oxidized LDL generated by incubation with oxygen ra...
Beta-migrating very low density lipoproteins (R-VLDL) and chemically modified low density lipoproteins (LDL), labeled with the fluorescent probe 3,3-dioctadecylindocarbocyanine (Dil), were used to determine whether foam cells from atherosclerotic lesions have lipoprotein receptors similar to those of macrophages. The advantage of the Dil probe is that it produces a brilliant fluorescence due to...
Beta-migrating very low density lipoproteins (beta--VLDL) and chemically modified low density lipoproteins (LDL), labeled with the fluorescent probe 3,3'-dioctadecylindocarbocyanine (Dil), were used to determine whether foam cells from atherosclerotic lesions have lipoprotein receptors similar to those of macrophages. The advantage of the Dil probe is that it produces a brilliant fluorescence d...
Regulation of cholesterol metabolism in cultured cells and in the liver is dependent on actions of the LDL receptor. However, nonhepatic tissues have multiple pathways of cholesterol uptake. One possible pathway is mediated by LPL, an enzyme that primarily hydrolyzes plasma triglyceride into fatty acids. In this study, LDL uptake and tissue cholesterol levels in heart and skeletal muscle of wil...
