Lymphocyte Cytotoxicity of oxLDL in Patients with Atherosclerosis
Background: Atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory disease of the vessel wall is characterized by local and systemic immune responses to a variety of antigens. Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) is considered as an important determining factor in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the degree of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (...
متن کاملRoles of antibody against oxygenized low density lipoprotein in atherosclerosis: recent advances.
Atherosclerosis is a chronic immune inflammatory disease. Atherosclerosis and relevant disease are threatening human life and health. Oxygenized low density lipoprotein (oxLDL) is a molecular basis in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and able to induce inflammation, stimulate immune system and interfere with lipid metabolism in the occurrence and development of atherosclerosis. Antibody agai...
متن کاملEffect of Oxidized Low Density Lipoprotein on the Expression of Runx2 and SPARC Genes in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
Background: Vascular calcification is an important stage in atherosclerosis. During this stage, vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) synthesize many osteogenic factors such as osteonectin (encoded by SPARC). Oxidative stress plays a critical role in atherosclerosis progression, and its accumulation in the vascular wall stimulates the development of atherosclerosis and vascular calcification. The...
متن کاملInhibition of T cell response to native low-density lipoprotein reduces atherosclerosis
Immune responses to oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) are proposed to be important in atherosclerosis. To identify the mechanisms of recognition that govern T cell responses to LDL particles, we generated T cell hybridomas from human ApoB100 transgenic (huB100(tg)) mice that were immunized with human oxLDL. Surprisingly, none of the hybridomas responded to oxidized LDL, only to native LD...
متن کاملAntibodies against oxidized LDL and carotid artery intima-media thickness in a healthy population.
Oxidation of LDLs plays an important role in atherosclerosis, and immune response to oxidized LDL (oxLDL) may modulate atherogenesis. Although immunization with oxLDL is shown to suppress atherogenesis in animal models, the role of the immune response to oxLDL is not well established in humans. We investigated the relationship between the titer of anti-oxLDL antibody (oxLDL Ab) and arterial wal...
