Loss of Transcription Factor CREBH Accelerates Diet-Induced Atherosclerosis in Ldlr-/- Mice.
OBJECTIVE Liver-enriched transcription factor cAMP-responsive element-binding protein H (CREBH) regulates plasma triglyceride clearance by inducing lipoprotein lipase cofactors, such as apolipoprotein A-IV (apoA-IV), apoA-V, and apoC-II. CREBH also regulates apoA-I transcription. This study aims to determine whether CREBH has a role in lipoprotein metabolism and development of atherosclerosis. ...
متن کاملIs Western Diet-Induced Nonalcoholic Steatohepatitis in Ldlr-/- Mice Reversible?
BACKGROUND Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a major public health burden in western societies. The progressive form of NAFLD, nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), is characterized by hepatosteatosis, inflammation, oxidative stress, and hepatic damage that can progress to fibrosis and cirrhosis; risk factors for hepatocellular carcinoma. Given the scope of NASH, validating treatment p...
متن کاملApolipoprotein E4 domain interaction accelerates diet-induced atherosclerosis in hypomorphic Arg-61 apoe mice.
OBJECTIVE Apolipoprotein (apo) E4 is an established risk factor for atherosclerosis, but the structural components underlying this association remain unclear. ApoE4 is characterized by 2 biophysical properties: domain interaction and molten globule state. Substituting Arg-61 for Thr-61 in mouse apoE introduces domain interaction without molten globule state, allowing us to delineate potential p...
متن کاملHematopoietic interferon regulatory factor 8-deficiency accelerates atherosclerosis in mice.
OBJECTIVE Inflammatory leukocyte accumulation drives atherosclerosis. Although monocytes/macrophages and polymorphonuclear neutrophilic leukocytes (PMN) contribute to lesion formation, sequelae of myeloproliferative disease remain to be elucidated. METHODS AND RESULTS We used mice deficient in interferon regulatory factor 8 (IRF8(-/-)) in hematopoietic cells that develop a chronic myelogenous...
متن کاملHepatic Overexpression of Soluble Urokinase Receptor (uPAR) Suppresses Diet-Induced Atherosclerosis in Low-Density Lipoprotein Receptor-Deficient (LDLR-/-) Mice
OBJECTIVE Atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory disease, arises from metabolic disorders and is driven by inappropriate recruitment and proliferation of monocytes / macrophages and vascular smooth-muscle-cells. The receptor for the urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPAR, Plaur) regulates the proteolytic activation of plasminogen. It is also a coactivator of integrins and facilitates leuko...
