Cholesterol impairment contributes to neuroserpin aggregation
Intraneural accumulation of misfolded proteins is a common feature of several neurodegenerative pathologies including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, and Familial Encephalopathy with Neuroserpin Inclusion Bodies (FENIB). FENIB is a rare disease due to a point mutation in neuroserpin which accelerates protein aggregation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Here we show that cholesterol depl...
متن کاملABCA1 contributes to macrophage deposition of extracellular cholesterol.
We previously reported that cholesterol-enriched macrophages excrete cholesterol into the extracellular matrix. A monoclonal antibody that detects cholesterol microdomains labels the deposited extracellular particles. Macro-phage deposition of extracellular cholesterol depends, in part, on ABCG1, and this cholesterol can be mobilized by HDL components of the reverse cholesterol transport proces...
متن کاملDiabetes contributes to cholesterol metabolism regardless of obesity.
OBJECTIVE To investigate cholesterol metabolism in obesity with and without diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS We performed cross-sectional metabolic studies in obese individuals with and without type 2 diabetes. The study population consisted of 16 obese (BMI >30 kg/m(2)) diabetic subjects with a mean age of 52 +/- 2 years (SE) and 16 nondiabetic control subjects of similar age and weight...
متن کاملMitochondrial cholesterol contributes to chemotherapy resistance in hepatocellular carcinoma.
Cholesterol metabolism is deregulated in carcinogenesis, and cancer cells exhibit enhanced mitochondrial cholesterol content whose role in cell death susceptibility and cancer therapy has not been investigated. Here, we describe that mitochondria from rat or human hepatocellular carcinoma (HC) cells (HCC) or primary tumors from patients with HC exhibit increased mitochondrial cholesterol levels...
متن کاملCholesterol Contributes to Diabetic Nephropathy through SCAP-SREBP-2 Pathway
Diabetic nephropathy (DN) has been associated with the presence of lipid deposition. We hypothesized that the disruption of intracellular cholesterol feedback may contribute to DN. Diabetes was induced by high fat/sucrose diet and low-dose intraperitoneal injection of streptozocin (STZ) in male Sprague-Dawley rats. Then diabetic rats were randomly divided into two groups: untreated diabetic gro...
