Native High Density Lipoproteins (HDL) Interfere with Platelet Activation Induced by Oxidized Low Density Lipoproteins (OxLDL)
Platelets and lipoproteins play a crucial role in atherogenesis, in part by their ability to modulate inflammation and oxidative stress. While oxidized low density lipoproteins (OxLDL) play a central role in the development of this disease, high density lipoproteins (HDL) represent an atheroprotective factor of utmost importance. As platelet function is remarkably sensitive to the influence of ...
متن کاملOxidized Low Density Lipoproteins
The direct vasoactive effects of native and oxidatively modified low density lipoproteins as well as their effects on endothelium-dependent relaxations to 5-hydroxytryptamine were studied in isolated rings of pig right coronary artery. Slowly developing contractions were caused by native low density lipoproteins (100 gg protein/ml). The contractions were more pronounced in the absence than in t...

متن کاملCirculating Oxidized Low-Density Lipoproteins and Antibodies against Oxidized Low-Density Lipoproteins as Potential Biomarkers of Colorectal Cancer
Introduction. The aim of the study was evaluation of the diagnostic utility of serum oxidized low-density lipoproteins (oxLDL), antibodies against oxLDLs (o-LAB), and CEA as risk markers of colorectal cancer (CRC). Material and Methods. The serum levels of study factors were measured in 73 patients with CRC and in 35 healthy controls who were gender- and BMI-matched to the study group. Concentr...
متن کاملThe metabolism of native and malondialdehyde-altered low density lipoproteins by human monocyte-macrophages.
We have recently shown that cultured human monocyte-macrophages degraded 125I-labeled low density lipoprotein (125I-nativeee-LDL) by a saturable high-affinity process with maximal velocity at 25-30 microgram protein/ml (Fogelman et al., 1980, Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA. 77:2214-2218). We now describe studies of the binding of 125I-native-LDL at 4 degrees C and the effects of chloroquine, Ca2+ co...
