A novel oxidized low-density lipoprotein-binding protein, Asp-hemolysin, recognizes lysophosphatidylcholine.
Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL) plays an important role in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. Asp-hemolysin, a hemolytic toxin from Aspergillus fumigatus, is a specific, high affinity binding protein for Ox-LDL. We have previously shown that Ox-LDL strongly inhibits the hemolytic activity of Asp-hemolysin, and that the removal of lysophosphatidylcholine (lysoPC) from O...
متن کامل[Effects of low density lipoprotein and oxidized low density lipoprotein on the cytotoxic activity of Asp-hemolysin to murine macrophages].
We examined the effects of human low density lipoprotein (LDL) and oxidized LDL (Ox-LDL) on the cytotoxic activity of Asp-hemolysin from Aspergillus fumigatus Fresenius-Muramatsu strain to mouse peritoneal macrophages (M phi). The inhibitory effects of LDL and Ox-LDL on the cytotoxic activity of Asp-hemolysin to M phi increased in a dose-dependent manner, and the effect of Ox-LDL was greater th...
متن کاملThe Effect of ? -Tocopherol on Copper Binding to Low Density Lipoprotein
The oxidative modification of low density lipoprotein (LDL) may play an important role in atherogenesis. Antioxidants that can prevent LDL oxidation may act as antiatherogens. Our understanding of the mechanism of LDL oxidation and factors that determine its susceptibility to oxidation is still incomplete. Copper is a candidate for oxidizing LDL in atherosclerotic lesions. The binding of copper...

متن کاملplasma level of oxidized low- density lipoprotein in macroalbuminuric
accumulating evidence suggest that in patients with diabetes mellitus, increased rate of lipoprotein oxidation and oxidative stress have important role in diabetic angiopathy, including nephropathy. to evaluate the association of oxidized low- density lipoprotein (ox-ldl) with the development of diabetic nephropathy, plasma level of ox-ldl were measured in 70 diabetic patients with macro and 63...
