Activation of EGF receptor by oxidized LDL.
Oxidized low density lipoproteins (oxLDL) are thought to play a major role in atherosclerosis. OxLDL exhibit a wide variety of biological effects resulting from their ability to interfere with intracellular signaling. The cellular targets and primary signaling events of oxLDL are unknown. We report that oxLDL elicit, in intact cells, tyrosine phosphorylation of the epithelial growth factor rece...
متن کاملLectin-like oxidized LDL receptor-1: Its diverse roles beyond an oxidized LDL receptor and clinical relevance
Oxidative stress induced by reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of various cardiovascular diseases. The redox state is determined by the balance between the pro-oxidative and anti-oxidative systems, and its imbalance leads to oxidative stress. ROS directly induces endothelial injury and inactivates endotheliumderived nitric oxide, which is a potent protecti...
متن کاملCirculating autoantibodies to oxidized LDL correlate with arterial accumulation and depletion of oxidized LDL in LDL receptor-deficient mice.
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...
متن کاملPPARγ regulates adipocyte cholesterol metabolism via oxidized LDL receptor 1
In addition to its role in energy storage, adipose tissue also accumulates cholesterol. Concentrations of cholesterol and triglycerides are strongly correlated in the adipocyte, but little is known about mechanisms regulating cholesterol metabolism in fat cells. Here we report that antidiabetic thiazolidinediones (TZDs) and other ligands for the nuclear receptor PPARγ dramatically upregulate ox...
متن کاملOxidized LDL, a critical factor in atherogenesis.
There is a great deal of experimental, epidemiological, and clinical evidence suggesting that disorders of lipid metabolism play an important role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. To date, there have been many studies investigating the mechanisms by which high levels of LDL-cholesterol affect biology of vessels and cause atherosclerotic lesion formation [1,2]. It has become abundantly cl...
