INTRODUCTION A low level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is an established predictor of the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD). HDL promotes cellular cholesterol efflux and reverse cholesterol transport from lipid-laden macrophages (Figure 1), and prevents lipoprotein oxidation. A linear inverse relation has been reported in many observational studies between plasma HDL-C leve...
BACKGROUND Xanthohumol is expected to be a potent anti-atherosclerotic agent due to its inhibition of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP). In this study, we hypothesized that xanthohumol prevents atherosclerosis in vivo and used CETP-transgenic mice (CETP-Tg mice) to evaluate xanthohumol as a functional agent. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Two strains of mice, CETP-Tg and C57BL/6N (wil...
Macrophage ABCA1 and ABCG1, but not SR-BI, promote macrophage reverse cholesterol transport in vivo.
Macrophage ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1), scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI), and ABCG1 have been shown to promote cholesterol efflux to extracellular acceptors in vitro and influence atherosclerosis in mice, but their roles in mediating reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) from macrophages in vivo are unknown. Using an assay of macrophage RCT in mice, we found that primary ...
Plasma high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C) levels do not predict functionality and composition of high-density lipoprotein(HDL). Traditionally, keeping levels of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C) down and HDL-C up have been the goal of patients to prevent atherosclerosis that can lead to coronary vascular disease(CVD). People think about the HDL present in their cholesterol tes...
The scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI), which mediates selective cellular cholesterol uptake from high-density lipoproteins (HDLs), plays a key role in reverse cholesterol transport. The orphan nuclear receptor liver receptor homolog 1 (LRH-1) and SR-BI are co-expressed in liver and ovary, suggesting that LRH-1 might control the expression of SR-BI in these tissues. LRH-1 induces human a...
To test the hypothesis that apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) functions specifically to inhibit atherosclerosis independent of the level of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) by promoting both reverse cholesterol transport and HDL antiinflammatory function in vivo, we established a murine atherosclerosis model of apoA-I deficiency in which the level of HDL-C is well maintained. ApoA-I / mic...
