AIM Macrophage apoptosis is a vital event in advanced atherosclerosis, and oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) is a major contributor to this process. Acid sphingomyelinase (ASM) and ceramide are also involved in the induction of apoptosis, particularly in macrophages. Our current study focuses on ASM and investigates its role in ox-LDL-induced macrophage apoptosis. METHODS Human THP-1 ...
OBJECTIVE LOX-1, a novel lectin-like receptor for oxidized LDL (ox-LDL), is expressed in response to ox-LDL, angiotensin II (Ang II), tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha, and other stress stimuli. It is highly expressed in atherosclerotic tissues. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-gamma ligands, such as pioglitazone, exert antiatherosclerotic effects. This study examined the regul...
Excess vascular oxidative stress has been linked to impaired endothelium-dependent arterial relaxation in hypercholesterolemia. alpha-Tocopherol (AT) preserves endothelial function in hypercholesterolemia although the mechanism(s) for this protective effect is (are) not known. We examined the tissue-specific effects of AT on oxidized LDL (ox-LDL)-mediated endothelial dysfunction in male New Zea...
Antibodies against oxidized low density lipoproteins (Ox-LDLs) have been proposed to be independent predictors of atherosclerosis development. The main aims of the current study were to (1) compare antibody titers to Ox-LDL in patients with heterozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (n=51) with those in matched controls (n=45) and (2) analyze whether the antibody titers were related to the exte...
OBJECTIVE Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) increases superoxide anion (O(2)(-)) production by the endothelial nitric oxide (NO) synthase (eNOS). We assessed whether the uncoupling of eNOS was associated with alterations in eNOS phosphorylation and/or the assembly of the eNOS signaling complex. METHODS AND RESULTS In unstimulated human endothelial cells, eNOS Thr(495) was constitutive...
Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) is a powerful natural prooxidant derived from native LDL by cell-mediated oxidation. Such oxidation occurs more easily in glycated LDL as observed in diabetes mellitus. We evaluated and compared selected biomarkers of oxidative stress and total antioxidant (TAO) levels in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients with and without retinopathy in the Mthat...
Lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor1 (LOX-1) has been recognized to be the major endothelial receptor for oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL). Ox-LDL has been reported to induce the expression of inflammatory adhesive molecules from vascular endothelium. However, the mechanism of this action has not been fully elucidated. Peroxisome proliferation-activated receptor-gamma...
Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) is a major and critical mediator of atherosclerosis, and the underlying mechanism is thought to involve the ox-LDL-induced dysfunction of endothelial cells (ECs). MicroRNAs (miRNAs), which are a group of small non-coding RNA molecules that post-transcriptionally regulate the expression of target genes, have been associated with diverse cellular function...
Oxidized low density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) and its receptor, lectin-Like ox-LDL receptor-1 (LOX-1), play important roles in the development of endothelial injuries. Olmesartan can protect endothelial cells from the impairment caused by various pathological stimulations. In the present study we investigated whether olmesartan decreased the impairment of endothelial cells induced by ox-LDL by exer...
OBJECTIVE Wnt5a is a secreted glycoprotein highly present in atherosclerotic lesions. Uptake of oxidized-low density lipoprotein (ox-LDL) by monocytes/macrophages plays a critical role in atherosclerosis. The objective of this study was to determine if Wnt5a mRNA expression correlates with the severity of atherosclerotic lesions, and if, ox-LDL can induce Wnt5a mRNA in macrophages. METHODS Wn...
