Regulation of neutral cholesterol esterase activity
The effect of phospholipids on cholesteryl ester hydrolysis by neutral cholesterol esterase in alveolar macrophages was studied. Among the phospholipids used as emulsifiers, those with a negative charge, such as phosphatidylserine, phosphatidic acid, phosphatidylinositol, and cardiolipin, gave a higher level of hydrolysis by neutral cholesterol esterase than other less negatively charged phosph...
متن کاملimmunosuppressive activity of leishmania major culture supernatant
balb/c mice are highly susceptible to infection with the protozoan parasite leishmania major. this susceptibility has been attributed in part to the expansion of th2 cells and production of their cytokines, il-4 and il-10 and down-regulation of th1 cytokine, inf-γ. the inability of susceptible hosts to mount the immune response necessary to activate macrophage and destroy the parasites can be d...
متن کاملPresence of glycerophospholipid: cholesterol acyltransferase and phospholipase in culture supernatant of Aeromonas hydrophila.
Human erythrocyte membrane glycerophospholipids are deacylated by Aeromonas hydrophila 13-h culture supernatants, resulting in the production of cholesterol ester, free fatty acid, and water-soluble phosphates. This activity appears to be due to the actions of an acyltransferase (phosphatide:cholesterol acyltransferase, EC 2.3.1 group) and a phospholipase (phosphatide acyl-hydrolase). The enzym...
متن کاملCharacterization of the cholesterol-reducing activity in a cell-free supernatant of Lactobacillus acidophilus ATCC 43121.
This study characterizes the factors responsible for the cholesterol reduction by Lactobacillus acidophilus ATCC 43121. In addition, two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and protein profiling was also used to study the response of ATCC 43121 at the proteome level in the presence of cholesterol. The results show that the cell-free supernatant (CFS) produced by ATCC 43121 in the presence of...
متن کاملIntestinal cholesterol esterase: intracellular enzyme
The location of cholesterol esterase in rabbit intestine was re-evaluated. In three different experiments that were designed to eliminate contaminating mucus and pancreatic enzymes from the lumen of the small intestine, it was observed that the activities of cholesterol esterase and amylase in intestinal cytosol and whole homogenate decreased in parallel fashion. After the mucus was carefully w...
