An apolipoprotein B100 mimotope prevents obesity in mice
Although apolipoprotein B100 (ApoB100) plays a key role in peripheral fat deposition, it is not considered a suitable therapeutic target in obesity. In the present study we describe a novel ApoB100 mimotope, peptide pB1, and the use of pB1-based vaccine-like formulations (BVFs) against high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity. In HFD- compared with chow-fed adolescent mice, BVFs reduced the 3-month ...
متن کاملSusceptibility to atherosclerosis in mice expressing exclusively apolipoprotein B48 or apolipoprotein B100.
All classes of lipoproteins considered to be atherogenic contain apo-B100 or apo-B48. However, there is a distinct paucity of data regarding whether lipoproteins containing apo-B48 or apo-B100 differ in their intrinsic ability to promote the development of atherosclerosis. To address this issue, we compared the extent of atherosclerosis in three groups of animals: apo-E-deficient mice (apo-B+/+...
متن کاملComplex effects of inhibiting hepatic apolipoprotein B100 synthesis in humans.
Mipomersen is a 20mer antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) that inhibits apolipoprotein B (apoB) synthesis; its low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-lowering effects should therefore result from reduced secretion of very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL). We enrolled 17 healthy volunteers who received placebo injections weekly for 3 weeks followed by mipomersen weekly for 7 to 9 weeks. Stable isotopes were us...
متن کاملApolipoprotein B100 autoimmunity and atherosclerosis - disease mechanisms and therapeutic potential.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Adaptive immune responses have been shown to play an important role in the atherosclerotic disease process and both pathogenic and protective immunity has been identified. Apolipoprotein (apo) B100 appears to be a key antigen and novel therapies modulating immune responses against apo B100 have shown promising results in experimental models. This review will discuss recent dev...
متن کاملButyrate stimulates the secretion of apolipoprotein (apo) A-I and apo B100 by the human hepatoma cell line Hep G2. Induction of apo A-I mRNA with no change of apo B100 mRNA.
Addition of sodium butyrate to the culture medium of the human hepatoma cell line Hep G2 resulted in a time- and dose-dependent increase in the secretion of apolipoprotein A-I (apo A-I) and apolipoprotein B100 (apo B100). After a 24 h preincubation period, a 2.4- and 2.2-fold increase in the secretion of apo A-I and apo B100 respectively was obtained during the next 24 h in the presence of 2 mM...
