Differential Trafficking of Oxidized LDL and Oxidized LDL Immune Complexes in Macrophages: Impact on Oxidative Stress
BACKGROUND Oxidized low-density lipoproteins (oxLDL) and oxLDL-containing immune complexes (oxLDL-IC) contribute to formation of lipid-laden macrophages (foam cells). It has been shown that oxLDL-IC are considerably more efficient than oxLDL in induction of foam cell formation, inflammatory cytokines secretion, and cell survival promotion. Whereas oxLDL is taken up by several scavenger receptor...
متن کاملGlyc-oxidized LDL impair endothelial function more potently than oxidized LDL: role of enhanced oxidative stress.
Hypercholesterolemia is associated with impairment of endothelial function due to increased levels of LDL. In diabetic patients, however, attenuation of endothelial function occurs even under normocholesterolemic conditions. Here we assessed whether glycation of LDL potentiates their influence on endothelial function, with particular emphasis on the oxidizability of LDL and the role of O2-. Hum...
متن کاملMinimally oxidized LDL offsets the apoptotic effects of extensively oxidized LDL and free cholesterol in macrophages.
OBJECTIVE Lipid-loaded macrophage-derived foam cells populate atherosclerotic lesions and produce many pro-inflammatory and plaque-destabilizing factors. An excessive accumulation of extensively oxidized low-density lipoprotein (OxLDL) or free cholesterol (FC), both of which are believed to be major lipid components of macrophages in advanced lesions, rapidly induces apoptosis in macrophages. I...
متن کاملOxidized LDL triggers changes in oxidative stress and inflammatory biomarkers in human macrophages
Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) is a well-recognized proatherogenic particle that functions in atherosclerosis. In this study, we established conditions to generate human oxLDL, characterized according to the grade of lipid and protein oxidation, particle size and oxylipin content. The induction effect of the cellular proatherogenic response was assessed in foam cells by using an oxLDL...
متن کاملHuman-derived anti-oxidized LDL autoantibody blocks uptake of oxidized LDL by macrophages and localizes to atherosclerotic lesions in vivo.
Autoantibodies to oxidation-specific epitopes of low density lipoprotein (LDL), such as malondialdehyde-modified LDL (MDA-LDL), occur in plasma and atherosclerotic lesions of humans and animals. Plasma titers of such antibodies are correlated with atherosclerosis in murine models, and several such autoantibodies have been cloned. However, human-derived monoclonal antibodies to epitopes of oxidi...
