Central Nervous System Lipoproteins

ثبت نشده
چکیده

Lipoprotein and cholesterol metabolism in the brain involves metabolic pathways that are regulated independently of those in the peripheral circulation and tissues. The blood–brain barrier (BBB) restricts plasma lipids, including cholesterol and plasma lipoproteins, from entering or leaving the central nervous system (CNS). In the CNS, cholesterol is synthesized by astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, microglia, and to a lesser extent neurons. CNS cholesterol homeostasis is maintained by 24S-hydroxycholesterol produced by neurons. CNS lipoproteins redistribute cholesterol and lipids to neurons and other brain cells to maintain neuronal plasticity, which requires repair and remodeling of membranes, organelle biogenesis, and synaptogenesis. ApoE is critical in this process through the formation of apoE-enriched CNS lipoproteins that are high-density lipoprotein (HDL) like but are unlike the major apoAI-enriched HDL in plasma.

Review of the Aspergillosis and Report A Case of its Central Nervous System

SUMMARY Because Aspergillus SP. are one of the most common airborne fungal contaminants in all parts of the world, the incidence of Aspergillosis is relatively high, but will not be diagnosed in some cases. In this survey we decided to review the importance of Aspergillosis and also to report a case of its Central Nervous system involvement in a patient without Immunodeficiency.

A Case Report of Primary Angiitis of the Central Nervous System

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Primary angiitis of the central nervous system (PACNS) is an inflammatory vasculitis with very low frequency and prevalence. It is not clear why the inflammatory process of this disease is limited to cerebrovascular disease without systemic manifestations. A case of primary angiitis of the central nervous system with cerebrovascular manifestations is reported here.  C...

Involvement of apolipoprotein E in the hematogenous route of herpes simplex virus type 1 to the central nervous system.

Apolipoprotein E (ApoE), a constituent of the lipoproteins, may be relevant in herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infection of the central nervous system (CNS), since HSV-1 binds to human serum ApoE lipoproteins. This study demonstrates the involvement of ApoE in the hematogenous route of HSV-1 to the CNS.
