Dissection of receptor folding and ligand-binding property with functional minireceptors of LDL receptor-related protein.
The LDL receptor-related protein (LRP) is a large, multifunctional endocytic receptor that binds and endocytoses a variety of structurally and functionally distinct ligands. LRP contains four putative ligand-binding domains. However, only domains II, III and IV, but not domain I, bind the receptor-associated protein (RAP), a molecular chaperone and universal antagonist for LRP. In order to diss...
متن کاملIdentification of soluble forms of lectin-like oxidized LDL receptor-1.
Lectin-like oxidized LDL receptor-1 (LOX-1) is a type II membrane protein belonging to the C-type lectin family molecules, which can act as a cell-surface endocytosis receptor for atherogenic oxidized LDL. In this study, we show that soluble forms of LOX-1 are present in conditioned media of cultured bovine aortic endothelial cells (BAECs) and CHO-K1 cells stably transfected with LOX-1 cDNA. Im...
متن کاملSevelamer does not decrease lipopolysaccharide or soluble CD14 levels but decreases soluble tissue factor, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, and oxidized LDL cholesterol levels in individuals with untreated HIV infection.
UNLABELLED Abnormal levels of inflammation are associated with cardiovascular disease and mortality in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected patients. Microbial translocation, which may cause inflammation, is decreased by sevelamer in patients undergoing hemodialysis. In this single-arm study, we evaluated the effects of 8 weeks of sevelamer therapy on 36 HIV-infected subjects who were no...
متن کاملAltered susceptibility to in vitro oxidation of LDL in LDL complexes and LDL aggregates.
Low density lipoprotein (LDL) is known to form complexes with polysulfated compounds, like heparin, dextran sulfate (DS), and chondroitin sulfate. In particular, chondroitin 6-sulfate (C6S)-rich proteoglycans of the arterial intima can associate with LDL, resulting in accumulation of LDL in atherosclerotic lesions. Besides LDL complex formation, LDL self-aggregation has been recently suggested ...
