Sulfur mustard (SM) is a strong alkylating and mutagenic compound that targets humanairway system. We considered the expression of Forkhead box M1 (FOXM1) and apolipoproteinE (APOE) genes, which are responsible for cell proliferation, differentiation, tumorigenesis,and increased risk of lung cancer, in the lung bronchial tissue of patients exposed to SM.After performing pulmonary functional tes...
Apolipoprotein E (APOE) is the major risk factor for sporadic Alzheimer's disease. Among other functions, APOE is proposed to sequester neurotoxic amyloid-β (Aβ) peptides in the brain, delivering them to cellular catabolism via neuronal APOE receptors. Still, the receptors involved in this process remain controversial. Here, we identified the pro-neurotrophin receptor sortilin as major endocyti...
LDL receptor-related protein 5 (LRP5) plays multiple roles, including embryonic development and bone accrual development. Recently, we demonstrated that LRP5 is also required for normal cholesterol metabolism and glucose-induced insulin secretion. To further define the role of LRP5 in the lipoprotein metabolism, we compared plasma lipoproteins in mice lacking LRP5, apolipoprotein E (apoE), or b...
The human apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene plays an important role in lipid metabolism. It has three common genetic variants, alleles ε2/ε3/ε4, which translate into three protein isoforms of apoE2, E3 and E4. These isoforms can differentially influence total serum cholesterol levels; therefore, APOE has been linked with cardiovascular disease. Additionally, its ε4 allele is strongly associated with...
Platinum-containing stents are commonly used in humans with hypercholesterolemia, whereas preclinical stent evaluation has been performed healthy animal models, providing inadequate information about performance under hypercholesterolemic conditions. In this investigation, we an ApoE−/− mouse model to test the impact of hypercholesterolemia on neointima formation platinum-containing implants. W...
OBJECTIVES To investigate potential roles of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and apolipoprotein (apoE) in inflammation and apoptosis promoting pathological changes in preeclampsia in pregnant mice with apoE and/or iNOS knock out. METHODS B6.129 mice were crossed to produce WT, apoE(-/-), apoE(+/-), iNOS(-/-), iNOS(+/-) and apoE(-/-)iNOS(-/-) groups. Variants were confirmed by PCR. Seru...
BACKGROUND Angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor activation is potentially involved in the multifactorial pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. METHODS AND RESULTS Apolipoprotein E-deficient (ApoE-/-) mice were crossed with AT1A receptor-deficient (AT1-/-) mice to obtain homozygous double-knockout animals (ApoE-/--AT1-/- mice). Wild-type (C57BL/6J), ApoE-/-, AT1-/-, and ApoE-/--AT1-/- mice were fed...
Though the presence of antioxidized low-density lipoprotein IgG is well documented in clinical and animal studies, the role for FcγRs to the progression of atherosclerosis has not been studied in detail. In the current study, we investigated the role for activating FcγR in the progression of atherosclerosis using apolipoprotein E (apoE)-Fcγ-chain double-knockout (DKO) mice. Relative to apoE kno...
AIMS Mast cells participate importantly in abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) by releasing inflammatory cytokines to promote vascular cell protease expression and arterial wall remodelling. Mast cells accumulate in AAA lesions during disease progression, but the exact chemokines by which mast cells migrate to the site of vascular inflammation remain unknown. This study tested the hypothesis that...
OBJECTIVE The worldwide prevalence of obesity is increasing at an alarming rate, along with the associated increased rates of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, and some cancers. While efforts to address environmental factors responsible for the recent epidemic must continue, investigation into the anorectic functions of potential molecules we present here, such as apolipoprotein (apo)E, offers ex...
