Journal ArticleDOI

Epitopes close to the apolipoprotein B low density lipoprotein receptor-binding site are modified by advanced glycation end products

TL;DR: It is proposed that the inability of LDL modified by AGEs to bind to the LDLr is caused by modification of residues adjacent to the putative LDLr-binding site that were undetected by previous immunochemical studies.
Book ChapterDOI

Advanced glycation end products: detection and reversal.

TL;DR: This chapter describes the present state of methodology for the detection of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) and discusses the experimental application of a new class of pharmacological agents capable of chemically dissociating AGE cross-links and physically “breaking” the covalent bond linking two polypeptide chains.
Journal ArticleDOI

The reaction of 16α‐hydroxyestrone with erythrocytes in vitro and in vivo

TL;DR: The accumulation of 16αOHE-proteins may contribute to the understanding of systemic lupus erythematosus, an autoimmune disease in which elevated levels of 16β-Hydroxyestrone occur, and the amount of these adducts was quantitated by radioimmunoassy and found to be five times higher than the plasma levels of free 16 αOHE.
Journal ArticleDOI

Local apoptosis promotes collagen production by monocyte-derived cells in transforming growth factor β1-induced lung fibrosis

TL;DR: Interventions that prevent collagen production by monocytes via modulation of caspase activation and of apoptosis may be ameliorative in monocyte-associated, TGF-β1-driven processes such as pulmonary fibrosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Validity of LupusQoL-China for the assessment of health related quality of life in Chinese patients with systemic lupus erythematosus.

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that the LupusQoL-China is valid as a disease-specific HRQo lupus erythematosus assessment tool for Chinese patients with SLE.
