Cholesterol oxides inhibit cholesterol esterification by lecithin:cholesterol acyl transferase
Cholesterol oxides are atherogenic and can affect the activity of diverse important enzymes for the lipidic metabolism. The effect of 7b-hydroxycholesterol, 7-ketocholesterol, 25-hydroxycholesterol, cholestan-3b,5a,6b-triol,5,6b-epoxycholesterol, 5,6a-epoxycholesterol and 7a-hydroxycholesterol on esterification of cholesterol by lecithin:cholesterol acyl transferase (LCAT, EC 2.3.1.43) and the ...
متن کاملFamilial Lecithin Cholesterol Acyl Transferase Deficiency with Chronic Kidney Disease.
Familial lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) deficiency is a rare autosomal recessive (AR) disease caused by mutation in the LCAT gene. LCAT enzyme esterifies cholesterol molecules in high-density lipoprotein(HDL) and low density-lipoprotein (LDL) particles. This enzyme deficiency is characterised by progressive corneal opacification, glomerulopathy, mild - moderate haemolytic anaemia a...
متن کاملSerum cholesterol esterification in liver disease. Combined determinations of lecithin: cholesterol acyltransferase and lipoprotein-X.
Indireet evidence suggests that lecithin: choles· terol acyltransferase (LCAT) is synthesized in the liver. There are, however, controversial reports in the literature correlating LCAT activity with various forms of liver disease. The purpose of this study was to determine LCAT activity in icteric pa· tients. These were classified not only by the conventional methods, but also with respect to t...
متن کاملInvolvement of serum apolipoprotein AI and B100 and lecithin cholesterol acyl transferase in alcoholic cirrhotics.
Lipoproteins are synthesized by the liver and secreted to plasma. Chronic alcoholic intoxication produces frequently cirrhosis and concomitantly alterations in liver metabolism. Thirty patients with alcoholic cirrhosis and 83 healthy controls were selected for this study. Apolipoprotein A1, B100, lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase, responsible for cholesterol esterification and seudocholinest...
متن کاملRegulation of acyl CoA: cholesterol acyl transferase (ACAT) activity by mevalonate and cholesterol in isolated rat hepatocytes during perinatal development.
Acyl CoA: cholesterol acyl transferase (ACAT) activity presents marked oscillations and differential sensitivity to the "in vitro" stimulation of the kinase-phosphatase modulatory system in the perinatal rat liver. The regulation of this enzyme activity by some modulators generally active in adulthood, such as cholesterol, lipoproteins and mevalonate, has been studied in hepatocytes isolated at...
