Propensity for cholesterol gallstone formation is determined in part by biliary cholesterol content relative to bile salts and phospholipid. We examined the hypothesis that the rate of biliary cholesterol secretion can be controlled by availability of an hepatic metabolically active free cholesterol pool whose size is determined in part by rates of sterol synthesis, as reflected by activity of ...
The effects of atorvastatin on the expression of the hepatic HMG-CoA reductase and LDL receptor genes were investigated in rats. Like the other statins, atorvastatin increased the rate of degradation and presumably cycling of the hepatic LDL receptor. In atorvastatin-treated rats, the half-life of the receptor was decreased by over 60%. Hepatic HMG-CoA reductase mRNA levels were increased about...
The beneficial effects of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitors (statins) on coronary events have generally been attributed to their hypocholesterolaemic properties. However, as mevalonate and other intermediates of cholesterol synthesis (isoprenoids) are necessary for cell proliferation and other important cell functions, effects other than cholesterol reduction ...
The present work was undertaken in order to study whether or not there is a relation between hepatic HMG CoA reductase, hepatic cholesterol concentration, and biliary lipid composition. In 55 patients (10 with adenomyoma of the gallbladder wall, 45 with cholesterol gallstones) a liver biopsy together with gallbladder and hepatic bile were obtained at laparotomy under standardized conditions. Of...
The corrole-based catalytic antioxidant reduced the cholesterol biosynthesis ability of macrophages, harvested from mice treated with it. and a non-redox active analogue of it affect the committed step of the biosynthetic pathway--the HMG-CoA reductase catalysed reaction--by acting as allosteric inhibitors of this key enzyme.
Nanoemulsification of nutrients could improve bioavailability by enhancing intestinal uptake. We investigated the antioxidant and hypolipidemic effects of nanoemulsified green tea extract (NGTE). Antioxidant effect was measured by 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging assay and dichlorofluorescein diacetate (DCFH-DA) assay. C57BL/6 mice were fed a contr...
There is epidemiologic evidence that the hydrophilic 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase inhibitor pravastatin increases the incidence of some extrahepatic cancers, although this finding has been attributed to chance. We hypothesize that pravastatin is able to promote the development of cancer by causing an induction of HMG-CoA reductase and, hence, mevalonate synthesis in extrah...
The specific effects of soybean protein on lipid metabolism were determined with highly purified soybean protein. At 5 wk of age, growing rats were fed diets containing 20% highly purified soybean protein or casein supplemented or not with 0.1% cholesterol for 2 mo. Plasma and liver lipid composition, fecal steroid excretion and several hepatic enzyme activities were measured. There were no sig...
The strain and sex differences in serum total cholesterol (TC) levels were examined in F344 and Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. A sex difference (male<female) was observed in F344 rats but not in SD rats. The strain-dependent sex difference (male<female) was also observed in the constitutive gene expression level of hepatic 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-glutaryl-CoA reductase (HMGR), a rate-limiting enzyme for ...
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) enzyme, 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA reductase, catalyzes the production of mevalonate, a rate-controlling step in cholesterol biosynthesis. Excess sterols promote ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of reductase as part of a negative feedback regulatory mechanism. To characterize the process in more detail, we here report the development of a permeabilize...
