Glucocorticoid receptor regulates ATP-binding cassette transporter-A1 expression and apolipoprotein-mediated cholesterol efflux from macrophages.
OBJECTIVE The ATP-binding cassette transporter-A1 (ABCA1) regulates cholesterol efflux from cells and is involved in high-density lipoprotein metabolism and atherogenesis. The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of dexamethasone (Dex) and other glucocorticoid receptor (GR) ligands on apolipoprotein AI-mediated cholesterol efflux from macrophages and ABCA1 expression in them. ...
متن کاملHNF4α increases liver-specific human ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 expression and cholesterol efflux to apolipoprotein A-I in response to cholesterol depletion.
OBJECTIVE Hepatic ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) plays the major role in maintaining plasma high-density lipoprotein levels by producing cholesterol-accepting nascent high-density lipoprotein, whereas peripheral ABCA1 is responsible for releasing cellular cholesterol. We previously reported that in rodents, cholesterol depletion reduces ABCA1 expression in peripheral but not hepati...
متن کاملIMB2026791, a xanthone, stimulates cholesterol efflux by increasing the binding of apolipoprotein A-I to ATP-binding cassette transporter A1.
It is known that the ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) plays a major role in cholesterol homeostasis and high density lipoprotein (HDL) metabolism. Several laboratories have demonstrated that ABCA1 binding to lipid-poor apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) will mediate the assembly of nascent HDL and cellular cholesterol efflux, which suggests a possible receptor-ligand interaction between ABC...
متن کاملCompound heterozygosity for an apolipoprotein A1 gene promoter mutation and a structural nonsense mutation with apolipoprotein A1 deficiency.
Apolipoprotein (apo) A1 plays a central role in the metabolism of HDL. We describe a novel genetic variant of the apoA1 gene identified in a patient with low concentrations of plasma HDL cholesterol. The proband, a 12-year-old Japanese boy, exhibited markedly low levels of both plasma apoA1 and HDL cholesterol. Genomic DNA sequencing of apoA1 genes of the patient showed a compound heterozygosit...
متن کاملCharacteristics and Functional Relevance of Apolipoprotein-A1 and Cholesterol Binding in Mammary Gland Tissues and Epithelial Cells
Cholesterol in milk is derived from the circulating blood through a complex transport process involving the mammary alveolar epithelium. Details of the mechanisms involved in this transfer are unclear. Apolipoprotein-AI (apoA-I) is an acceptor of cellular cholesterol effluxed by the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter A1 (ABCA1). We aimed to 1) determine the binding characteristics of (125)I...
