Elevated plasma membrane cholesterol content alters macrophage signaling and function.
OBJECTIVE During atherogenesis, macrophages migrate into the subendothelial space where they ingest deposited lipoproteins, accumulate lipids, and transform into foam cells. It is unclear why these macrophages do not remove their lipid loads from the region. This study was aimed at testing the hypothesis that macrophage behavior is altered when membrane cholesterol levels are elevated, as might...
متن کاملRegulation of endoplasmic reticulum cholesterol by plasma membrane cholesterol.
The abundance of cell cholesterol is governed by multiple regulatory proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) which, in turn, are under the control of the cholesterol in that organelle. But how does ER cholesterol reflect cell (mostly plasma membrane) cholesterol? We have systematically quantitated this relationship for the first time. We found that ER cholesterol in resting human fibroblasts...
متن کاملp53 attenuates AKT signaling by modulating membrane phospholipid composition
The p53 tumor suppressor is the central component of a complex network of signaling pathways that protect organisms against the propagation of cells carrying oncogenic mutations. Here we report a previously unrecognized role of p53 in membrane phospholipids composition. By repressing the expression of stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1, SCD, the enzyme that converts saturated to mono-unsaturated fatty a...
متن کاملAcetyl salicylic acid attenuates cardiac hypertrophy through Wnt signaling.
Ventricular hypertrophy is a powerful and independent predictor of cardiovascular morbid events. The vascular properties of low-dose acetyl salicylic acid (aspirin) provide cardiovascular benefits through the irreversible inhibition of platelet cyclooxygenase 1; however, the possible anti-hypertrophic properties and potential mechanism of aspirin have not been investigated in detail. In this st...
متن کاملABCA1-mediated cholesterol efflux generates microparticles in addition to HDL through processes governed by membrane rigidity.
ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) mediates cholesterol efflux to lipid-poor apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) and generates HDL. Here, we demonstrate that ABCA1 also directly mediates the production of apoA-I free microparticles. In baby hamster kidney (BHK) cells and RAW macrophages, ABCA1 expression led to lipid efflux in the absence of apoA-I and released large microparticles devoid of a...
