BACKGROUND Human monocyte-derived macrophages synthesize numerous proinflammatory and prothrombotic substances, including lipid mediators, such as platelet-activating factor (PAF), which may play a major role in the onset and perpetuation of atherosclerotic lesions. In addition, both monocytes and macrophages express PAF receptors (PAF-R). The expression of PAF-R is transcriptionally downregula...
-The present study examined free cholesterol (FC) crystallization in macrophage foam cells. Model foam cells (J774 or mouse peritoneal macrophages [MPMs]) were incubated with acetylated low density lipoprotein and FC/phospholipid dispersions for 48 hours, resulting in the deposition of large stores of cytoplasmic cholesteryl esters (CEs). The model foam cells were then incubated for up to 5 day...
Atherosclerosis is a chronic immunoinflammatory disease associated with blood lipid disorders. Previous studies in mice have demonstrated that liver X receptor (LXR)‑ATP‑binding cassette (ABC) A1/ABCG1/C‑C chemokine receptor type 7 (CCR7) and nuclear factor κB (NF‑κB) signaling pathways are important for atherosclerotic plaque formation. In addition, Sirtuin 1 (SIRT1) has been reported as a key ...
Macrophage plays a crucial role for atherosclerotic plaque and its measurement is important. Fatty streak consists of macrophage foam cells, but its assessment by optical coherence tomography (OCT) has not been established in vivo. These images were derived from an aorta of Watanabe heritable hyperlipidaemia rabbit ex vivo. OCT cross-sectional image shows a linear highbrightness region (arrows)...
To analyze in vitro the migration of monocytes to the subendothelial space, their differentiation into macrophages, and the subsequent formation of foam cells in vitro, we have developed a 2-coculture system with rabbit aortic endothelial cells (AECs), aortic smooth muscle cells (SMCs), and a mixture of matrix proteins on polyethylene filters in chemotaxis chambers. AECs were seeded on a mixtur...
A case of xanthoma of the liver in a 61-year-old Korean woman with multiple myeloma, hyperlipidemia and xanthoma of the skin is described. Microscopically, the liver showed a multiple xanthomatous collection of foamy histiocytes as well as diffuse sinusoidal infiltration of the foam cells. This hepatic accumulation of foam cells seems to be related to hyperlipidemia of the patient. The mechanis...
Atherosclerosis (AS) is a common pathological basis for the development of various cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, however, currently, no effective treatment against AS has been established. It has previously been suggested that intravascular cytochrome P450 (CYP) oxidase is involved in the pathogenesis of AS. The present study investigated the role of cytochrome P450, family 2, su...
Monocyte-derived foam cells figure prominently in rupture-prone regions of atherosclerotic plaques. Peripheral blood monocytes in culture can produce certain enzymes that degrade extracellular matrix, known as matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Lipid-laden macrophages may thus contribute to weakening of extracellular matrix of rupture-prone atherosclerotic plaques. However, the spectrum and regu...
