OBJECTIVE Oxidation of LDL plays a significant pathogenic role in atherosclerosis. In this study, we attempted to clarify the correlation between the morphology of human atherosclerotic plaques and the oxidized LDL (OxLDL) levels in plasma and carotid plaques. METHODS AND RESULTS OxLDL levels (ng/microg apolipoprotein B) in plasma and carotid plaques from 44 patients undergoing carotid endart...
Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (OxLDL) is a risk factor in atherosclerosis and stimulates multiple signaling pathways, including activation of phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-K)/Akt and p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), which are involved in mitogenesis of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). We therefore investigated the relationship between PI3-K/Akt and p42/p44 MAPK acti...
BACKGROUND Aortic regurgitation (AR) is a condition associated with volume overload, causing left-ventricular (LV) remodeling, eccentric LV hypertrophy and eventually heart failure. LV remodeling associated with AR is regulated by mechanical stress, neurohormonal activation, inflammation and oxidative stress. Since anti-oxidized low-density lipoprotein (LDL) antibodies (Abs) are a measurable ma...
Oxidized low density lipoprotein (oxLDL) induces macrophage activation, an event essential for atherosclerosis. Emerging evidence supports that epigenetic regulation plays important roles in macrophage activation and function. However, it remains unclear which epigenetic modulator is responsible for oxLDL-induced macrophage activation. Here, we identify for the first time KDM4A (JMJD2A) as an e...
Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (OxLDL) has previously been thought to promote atherogenesis through foam cell formation. However, the actual nature of OxLDL present in vivo remained obscure until recently. We have produced a monoclonal antibody, DLH3, which specifically binds to OxLDL but not to native LDL. The presence of OxLDL in the LDL fraction of human plasma was demonstrated by introduc...
Oxidized LDL (OxLDL) is a proatherogenic lipoprotein, accumulating in the vascular wall and contributing to the pathogenesis of vascular dysfunction early in the development of atherosclerosis. Enhanced serum levels of OxLDL, as well as antibodies against its epitopes, are predictive for endothelial dysfunction and coronary heart disease. While enhanced oxidative stress is one factor triggering...
UNLABELLED For (18)F-FDG PET to be widely used to monitor atherosclerosis progression and therapeutic response, it is crucial to better understand how macrophage glucose metabolism is influenced by the atherosclerotic microenvironment and to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of this response. Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) is a key player in atherosclerotic inflammation that promotes...
Autoantibodies to oxidized low density lipoprotein (OxLDL) are elevated in some human populations with increased risk of atherosclerosis. To determine whether autoantibody levels to epitopes of OxLDL reflect the extent of aortic atherosclerosis and the content of OxLDL, we measured IgG and IgM autoantibody titers to malondialdehyde (MDA)-LDL and copper-oxidized LDL (Cu-OxLDL) in 43 LDL receptor...
Oxidized LDL (OxLDL) induces proliferation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). The influence of OxLDL on the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor p27(Kip1), on the activity of the small GTPase RhoA as a known regulator of p27(Kip1), and on resulting cell proliferation and hypertrophy was studied. HUVEC were stimulated with OxLDL (1 to 50 mug/ml). Proliferation was quantified by (3)H...
OBJECTIVE Macrophage survival and proliferation is believed to be a contributing factor in the development of early atherosclerotic lesions. Oxidized low density lipoprotein (oxLDL), a key mediator in the pathogenesis of this disease, has been shown to block apoptosis in macrophages deprived of growth factor. In this report, we investigate the mechanism of oxLDL-mediated macrophage survival. ...
