Lipoprotein lipase secretion by human monocyte-derived macrophages.
Human monocyte-derived macrophages in culture produced lipoprotein lipase. Although freshly isolated blood monocytes did not secrete much lipase activity, 1 d in culture was sufficient to trigger measureable enzyme production. During 3 wk in culture, maximal activity was attained after 7 d. At all times, the culture medium contained more enzyme activity than did a serum-heparin eluate or a dete...
متن کاملChlamydia pneumoniae proteins induce secretion of the 92-kDa gelatinase by human monocyte- derived macrophages.
Chlamydia pneumoniae, an intracellular Gram-negative respiratory bacterium, and macrophages are present in inflammatory tissue sites such as atherosclerotic lesions, where abnormal degradation of the extracellular matrix takes place. To evaluate the potential of C pneumoniae for participation in matrix destruction, we studied the effect of this bacterium on the production of 3 matrix-degrading ...
متن کاملQuantitative analysis of apolipoprotein E secretion by human monocyte-derived macrophages in culture.
Apolipoprotein E (apo E) has an impact on lipid metabolism and its production by macrophages is considered to play a protective role against atherosclerosis. Apo A-I stimulates secretion of apo E from macrophages. We developed a new method to evaluate the ability of human monocyte-derived macrophages to secrete apo E, and the effects of factors such as apo A-I were examined. Monocytes separated...
متن کاملAdipocyte-derived plasma protein, adiponectin, suppresses lipid accumulation and class A scavenger receptor expression in human monocyte-derived macrophages.
BACKGROUND Excessive lipid accumulation in macrophages plays an important role in the development of atherosclerosis. Recently, we discovered an adipocyte-specific plasma protein, adiponectin, that is decreased in patients with coronary artery disease. We previously demonstrated that adiponectin acts as a modulator for proinflammatory stimuli and inhibits monocyte adhesion to endothelial cells....
متن کاملEnhanced lipoprotein lipase secretion from human monocyte-derived macrophages caused by hypertriglyceridemic very low density lipoproteins.
We studied the effects of very low density lipoprotein (VDL) obtained from hypertriglyceridemic subjects on the secretion of lipoprotein lipase and lipid accumulation in human monocyte-derived macrophages. The incubation of macrophages with VLDL obtained from different subjects caused different effects on the secretion of lipoprotein lipase (6.8 to 137.7 nM free fatty acid/min/mg cell protein) ...
