Lipid peroxides induce expression of catalase in cultured vascular cells.
Various forms of oxidized low-density lipoproteins (Ox-LDL) are thought to play a major role in the development of atherosclerosis. The lipid components of Ox-LDL present a plethora of proatherogenic effects in in vitro cell culture systems, suggesting that oxidative stress could be an important risk factor for coronary artery disease. However, buried among these effects are those that could be...
متن کاملHemodynamic forces induce the expression of heme oxygenase in cultured vascular smooth muscle cells.
Both nitric oxide (NO) and carbon monoxide (CO) are vessel wall-derived messenger molecules that cause platelet inhibition and vasodilation by activating guanylyl cyclase in target cells. Since vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) are exposed to shear and tensile stresses, this study examined the effects of these hemodynamic forces on the enzymes that generate NO and CO in SMCs. Monolayers of cu...
متن کاملDietary lipid hydroperoxides induce expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in human colorectal tumor cells.
Fatty acid hydroperoxides arise from unsaturated fatty acids in the presence of oxygen and elevated temperature during processing of food. Here we have studied their effects on gene expression in colorectal tumor cells using linoleic acid hydroperoxide (LOOH) as a model compound. Its addition to the medium of LT97 human adenoma cells and SW480 human carcinoma cells enhanced the production of in...
متن کاملOverexpression of human catalase gene decreases oxidized lipid-induced cytotoxicity in vascular smooth muscle cells.
Reactive oxygen metabolites such as hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) and oxidized fatty acids are proinflammatory and are involved in the pathophysiology of various diseases including atherosclerosis. The effects of these oxidants could be inhibited by the external addition of an antioxidant, suggesting the promotion or propagation of further oxidation. In this study, we describe the stable overexp...
متن کاملLipid metabolism in cultured cells.
Utilization of serum triglycerides by cells in tissue culture has been studied in order to determine their importance as a source of cell lipids and to obtain information on the cellular mechanisms of triglyceride uptake. L strain mouse fibroblasts incorporated serum triglycerides from the growth medium, but the rates of uptake were up to IO-fold less than that of free fatty acids or monoglycer...
