High density lipoprotein reverses inhibitory effect of oxidized low density lipoprotein on endothelium-dependent arterial relaxation.
We have recently reported that oxidized low density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) inhibits endothelium-dependent arterial relaxation through its increased lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC). In this study we examined whether high density lipoprotein (HDL) has any effect on the inhibition of endothelium-dependent relaxation by ox-LDL in isolated strips of rabbit thoracic aorta. Both low density lipoprotein (L...
متن کاملCytotoxic effect of oxidized low density lipoprotein on macrophages.
Macrophage or macrophage-derived foam cell death is one of the characteristic events in the development of cell-poor lipid-rich cores of the advanced atherosclerotic plaques. Although the in vivo mechanism for the death of macrophages is unclear, one possible candidate for the agent which induces macrophage cell death is oxidized low density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL). To investigate the mechanism of...
متن کاملGlucose Influence on Copper Ion-Dependent Oxidation of Low Density Lipoprotein
Background: It is well established that oxidative modification of low density lipoprotein (LDL) plays a causal role in human atherogenesis and the risk of atherosclerosis is increased in patients with diabetes mellitus. We examined the in vitro effect of glucose on native and glycated LDL oxidation using copper ion dependent oxidation system. Methods: In this study, LDL was isolated from plasma...
متن کاملEffect of Lycopene on Formation of Low Density Lipoprotein-Copper Complex in Copper Catalyzed Peroxidation of Low Density Lipoprotein, as in vitro Experiment
Background: A great deal of evidence has indicated that oxidatively modified LDL plays a critical role in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. Antioxidants that can prevent LDL oxidation may act as antiatherogens. Copper is a candidate for oxidizing LDL in atherosclerotic lesions. The binding of copper ions to LDL is usually thought to be a prerequisite for LDL oxidation by copper...
متن کاملOxidized low-density lipoprotein in postmenopausal women.
BACKGROUND Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) leads to atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease, the most frequent causes of death worldwide. After menopause, lipid and lipoprotein metabolism changes and women are at greater risk of cardiovascular disease compared to fertile women. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of serum oxLDL in postmenopausal women and to identi...
