Characterization of very low density lipoprotein from Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic rabbits.
We investigated the properties of very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) from two types of Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic (WHHL) rabbits: one with a high incidence of coronary atherosclerosis (type 1), and the other with a low incidence (type 2). When incubated with mouse peritoneal macrophages, VLDL from type 1 WHHL rabbit (type 1-VLDL) stimulated cholesteryl ester synthesis 10.5-fold more tha...
متن کاملIsolation of low density lipoprotein from atherosclerotic vascular tissue of Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic rabbits.
Atherogenic properties of low density lipoproteins (LDL) in vivo may reflect modification of lipoproteins associated with endothelial translocation and exposure to extracellular matrix and interstitial fluid. To examine whether modifications of LDL occur in vivo, lipoproteins were isolated from plasma and vascular tissue of Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic (WHHL) rabbits. LDL was extracted fro...
متن کاملBeta-very low density lipoprotein uptake in cultured fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells from Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic rabbits.
Watanabe Heritable Hyperlipidemic (WHHL) rabbits are an important animal model used to study the effects of defective low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptors on lipoprotein metabolism. In the present study, the receptor-mediated catabolism of apolipoprotein (apo) E-containing lipoproteins was investigated in fibroblasts and smooth muscle cells cultured from WHHL rabbits. Fibroblasts from WHHL r...
متن کاملPlasma exchange and low density lipoprotein apheresis in Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic rabbits.
Comparison of the effects of plasma exchange using lipoprotein-deficient plasma with those of LDL apheresis using a dextran sulphate column was undertaken in two groups of Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic rabbits pre-labelled with 3H-cholesterol. Total and HDL cholesterol were reduced more by plasma exchange but HDL cholesterol rebounded higher after LDL apheresis; rises in HDL cholesterol cor...
متن کاملIncreased expression of lectin-like oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor-1 in initial atherosclerotic lesions of Watanabe heritable hyperlipidemic rabbits.
A novel lectin-like oxidized low density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1) was recently identified in bovine aortic endothelial cells. It is strongly suggested to have a potential role in the initiation and development of atherosclerosis. In this study, we have isolated cDNA clones encoding the rabbit homologue of LOX-1 by screening a rabbit placenta cDNA library. In amino acid sequence and domain...
