A degradation product of APOE ε4-encoded apolipoprotein E protein targets mitochondria and inhibits cytochrome oxidase (COX), and autopsy brains from young adult APOE ε4 carriers show reduced COX activity. To further explore relationships between APOE alleles and COX, we measured platelet mitochondria COX activity in AD subjects with (n=8) and without (n=7) an APOE ε4 allele and found the mean ...
We analyzed the aplolipoprotein E (APOE) genotypes of 110 probable AD patients and 226 cognitively normal controls in Koreans. The APOE 14 allele was more prevalent in both earlyand late-onset AD patients (P , 0:01) than in controls. The odds for the APOE 14-heterozygous subjects were 2.7 (95% CI 1:6±4:5), and those for the APOE 14-homozygous subjects were 17.4 (95% CI 2:0±147:3). But the o...
Macrophage-derived foam cells express apolipoprotein E (apoE) abundantly in atherosclerotic lesions. To examine the physiologic role of apoE secretion by the macrophage in atherogenesis, bone marrow transplantation was used to reconstitute C57BL/6 mice with macrophages that were either null or wild type for the apoE gene. After 13 weeks on an atherogenic diet, C57BL/6 mice reconstituted with ap...
Variations at the apolipoprotein E (APOE) locus influence lipid and lipoprotein levels in the normal population, and are associated with premature coronary artery disease. In the present study, the APOE genotypes and allele frequencies in 299 women from Novosibirsk (West Siberia) were determined. APOE genotypes were detected by restriction isotyping after amplification of the genomic DNA by PCR...
Previous studies showed that reconstitution of atherosclerosis-susceptible C57BL/6 (B6) female mice with apolipoprotein E (apoE)-deficient (apoE(-/-)) bone marrow resulted in markedly increased atherosclerosis, despite the fact that plasma lipid levels were unchanged. To determine whether apoE(-/-) bone marrow would increase atherosclerosis in an atherosclerosis-resistant strain, female C3H/HeJ...
For decades, the pathology of Alzheimer's disease has been associated with dysfunction of cholinergic signaling; however, the cellular mechanisms by which nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) function is impaired in Alzheimer's disease are as yet unknown. The most significant genetic risk factor for the development of Alzheimer's disease is inheritance of the epsilon4 allele of apolipoprote...
Initial experiments revealed that low concentrations of apolipoprotein (apo) E (0.1 to 5 microg/mL) were effective in inhibiting platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-directed smooth muscle cell (SMC) migration by 60% to 80%. In contrast, higher concentrations of apoE, at 25 and 50 microg/mL, were necessary to achieve similar inhibition of PDGF-induced SMC proliferation. The potential role of n...
Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) is mainly secreted by glial cells and is involved in many brain functions, including neuronal plasticity, β-amyloid clearance, and neuroprotection. Microglia--the main immune cells of the brain--are one source of ApoE, but little is known about the physiologic regulation of microglial ApoE secretion by neurons and whether this release changes under inflammatory or neurod...
Although deficiency in Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) is linked to many diseases, its effect on colon homeostasis remains unknown. ApoE appears to control inflammation by regulating NF-kB. This study was designed to examine whether ApoE deficiency affects factors of colon integrity in vivo and given the likelihood that ApoE deficiency increases oxidized lipids and TNF-α, this study also examined whe...
Apolipoprotein (apo)E is synthesized in atherosclerotic lesions by macrophages, however, its role in lesions is not known. Whereas apoE could exacerbate atherosclerosis by promoting macrophage uptake of cholesterol-rich lipoproteins or modulating protective inflammatory responses, it could also restrict lesion formation by facilitating cholesterol efflux out of lesions. The role of apoE was exa...
