Endogenous ApoE expression modulates adipocyte triglyceride content and turnover.
Apolipoprotein E (apoE) is highly expressed in adipose tissue and adipocytes in which its expression is regulated by peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-gamma agonists and tumor necrosis factor-alpha. There is, however, no information regarding a role for endogenous apoE in differentiated adipocyte function. In this report, we define a novel role for apoE in modulating adipocyte l...
متن کاملExpression of heterologous human apolipoprotein E by J774 macrophages enhances cholesterol efflux to HDL3.
Expression of apolipoprotein (apo) E by macrophages is tightly regulated by cellular cholesterol content. We have investigated a potential modulating role for apoE on macrophage cholesterol homeostasis by stably transfecting the J774 macrophage, which does not express its endogenous apoE gene, with a human apoE cDNA expression vector and comparing cholesterol homeostasis in this cell line with ...
متن کاملOxidized-HDL3 modulates the expression of Cox-2 in human endothelial cells.
Modified high density lipoprotein (HDL) has been suggested to modulate endothelial expression of proinflammatory genes. Since oxidised HDL (Ox-HDL) has been found in atheromatous plaques and receptors for modified HDL are present on endothelial cells, we investigated the effect of Ox-HDL3 on the expression of Cox-1 or Cox-2. Ox-HDL3, increased Cox-2 mRNA and protein expression in endothelial ce...
متن کاملBinding of beta-VLDL to heparan sulfate proteoglycans requires lipoprotein lipase, whereas ApoE only modulates binding affinity.
The binding of beta-VLDL to heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPG) has been reported to be stimulated by both apoE and lipoprotein lipase (LPL). In the present study we investigated the effect of the isoform and the amount of apoE per particle, as well as the role of LPL on the binding of beta-VLDL to HSPG. Therefore, we isolated beta-VLDL from transgenic mice, expressing either APOE*2(Arg158-->C...
متن کاملHepatic lipase expression in macrophages contributes to atherosclerosis in apoE-deficient and LCAT-transgenic mice.
Hepatic lipase (HL) has a well-established role in lipoprotein metabolism. However, its role in atherosclerosis is poorly understood. Here we demonstrate that HL deficiency raises the proatherogenic apoB-containing lipoprotein levels in plasma but reduces atherosclerosis in lecithin cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) transgenic (Tg) mice, similar to results previously observed with HL-deficient...
