RATIONALE We and others have demonstrated that anthocyanins have antiatherogenic capability. Because intact anthocyanins are absorbed very poorly, the low level of circulating parent anthocyanins may not fully account for their beneficial effect. We found recently that protocatechuic acid (PCA), a metabolite of cyanidin-3 to 0-β-glucoside (Cy-3-G), has a remarkable antiatherogenic effect. OBJ...
Low circulating peptide YY (PYY) levels are reported in obese and type II diabetic subjects and results from PYY knockout animals suggests that PYY deficiency may have a causative role in the etiology of obesity and type 2 diabetes. Here, our aims were to determine whether people with a genetic predisposition to developing type 2 diabetes and obesity differ from otherwise similar subjects witho...
ATP-binding cassette transporter G1 (ABCG1) promotes cholesterol efflux from cells and regulates intracellular cholesterol homeostasis. Here we demonstrate a role of ABCG1 as a mediator of tumour immunity. Abcg1(-/-) mice have dramatically suppressed subcutaneous MB49-bladder carcinoma and B16-melanoma growth and prolonged survival. We show that reduced tumour growth in Abcg1(-/-) mice is myelo...
BACKGROUND & AIMS Gastrointestinal peptides are increasingly being linked to processes controlling the maintenance of bone mass. Peptide YY (PYY), a gut-derived satiety peptide of the neuropeptide Y family, is upregulated in some states that also display low bone mass. Importantly, PYY has high affinity for Y-receptors, particularly Y1R and Y2R, which are known to regulate bone mass. Anorexic c...
Yang, Hong, Keishi Kawakubo, and Yvette Taché. Intracisternal PYY increases gastric mucosal resistance: role of cholinergic, CGRP, and NO pathways. Am. J. Physiol. 277 (Gastrointest. Liver Physiol. 40): G555–G562, 1999.—The influence of intracisternal injection of peptide YY (PYY) on gastric lesions induced by ethanol was studied in urethananesthetized rats. Gastric lesions covered 15–22% of th...
This study characterizes the location and subtype of peptide YY (PYY) receptors in rat and rabbit kidney and the effect of PYY on renal function and renal hemodynamics in rats. Receptor autoradiography performed on kidney sections revealed a dense concentration of specific high-affinity binding sites [dissociation constant ( K d) = 0.7 ± 0.1 nM] in the papilla of the rat, as well as cortical an...
BACKGROUND Gastrointestinal peptides are involved in modulating appetite. Other biological functions attributed to them include the regulation of lipid homeostasis. However, data concerning PYY remain fragmentary. The objectives of the study were: (i) To determine the effect of PYY on intestinal transport and synthesis of cholesterol, the biogenesis of apolipoproteins (apos) and assembly of lip...
Introduction Delayed gastric emptying and feed intolerance occur frequently in the critically ill. In these patients, gastric motor responses to nutrients are disturbed. Peptide YY (PYY) slows gastric emptying. The aim of this study was to determine fasting and nutrient-stimulated plasma PYY concentrations and their relationship to cholecystokinin (CCK) in critically ill patients. Methods Studi...
Here, we describe the initial characterization of Abcg4(-/-) mice and identify overlapping functions of ABCG4 and ABCG1 in the brain. Histological examination of tissues from Abcg4(+/-)/nlsLacZ and Abcg1(+/-)/nlsLacZ mice demonstrates that coexpression of Abcg4 and Abcg1 is restricted to neurons and astrocytes of the central nervous system (CNS). Interestingly, Abcg4 mRNA is undetectable outsid...
Cholesterol is a key component of cell membranes and is essential for cell growth and proliferation. How the accumulation of cellular cholesterol affects lymphocyte development and function is not well understood. We demonstrate that ATP-binding cassette transporter G1 (ABCG1) regulates cholesterol homeostasis in thymocytes and peripheral CD4 T cells. Our work is the first to describe a cell ty...
