Depletion of Pre-β-high Density Lipoprotein by Human Chymase Impairs ATP-binding Cassette Transporter A1- but Not Scavenger Receptor Class B Type I-mediated Lipid Efflux to High Density Lipoprotein

TLDR
The results indicate that chymase treatment of HDL3 specifically impairs the ABCA1-dependent pathway without influencing either aqueous or SR-BI-facilitated diffusion and that this effect is caused by depletion of lipid-poor pre-β-migrating particles in HDL3.

The Ability to Promote Efflux Via ABCA1 Determines the Capacity of Serum Specimens With Similar High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol to Remove Cholesterol From Macrophages

TL;DR: It is found that independently of HDL-C, sera with higher efflux capacity had a significant increase in ABCA1-mediated efflux, which was significantly correlated to the concentration of pre&bgr;-1 HDL.

Cell Biology/Signaling The Ability to Promote Efflux Via ABCA1 Determines the Capacity of Serum Specimens With Similar High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol to Remove Cholesterol From Macrophages

TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured efflux from macrophages to apolipoprotein B-depleted serum from 263 specimens and found instances in which serum having similar high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) differed in their efflux capacity.

Paradoxical Association of Enhanced Cholesterol Efflux With Increased Incident Cardiovascular Risks

TL;DR: Heightened cholesterol efflux to apoB-depleted serum was paradoxically associated with increased prospective risk for myocardial infarction, stroke, and death, and the majority of released radiolabeled cholesterol from macrophages in cholesterol eff Lux activity assays does not reside within a high-density lipoprotein particle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Roles of ATP binding cassette transporters A1 and G1, scavenger receptor BI and membrane lipid domains in cholesterol export from macrophages.

TL;DR: The presence of distinct pathways for cholesterol efflux to lipid-free apolipoprotein AI and phospholipid-containing HDL species clarifies the understanding of reverse cholesterol transport, and provides new opportunities for its therapeutic manipulation.

Cardiovascular disease risk reduction by raising HDL cholesterol--current therapies and future opportunities

TL;DR: The biology of HDL particles, the established and future therapeutic options to increase HDL‐C, the results and conclusions of the most important studies published in the last years and an outlook on future diagnostic tools and therapeutic opportunities regarding coronary artery disease are given.

Atherosclerosis — An Inflammatory Disease

TL;DR: Atherosclerosis is an inflammatory disease as discussed by the authors, and it is a major cause of death in the United States, Europe, and much of Asia, despite changes in lifestyle and use of new pharmacologic approaches to lower plasma cholesterol concentrations.

Tricine-sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis for the separation of proteins in the range from 1 to 100 kDa.

TL;DR: A discontinuous sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) system for the separation of proteins in the range from 1 to 100 kDa is described, and the omission of glycine and urea prevents disturbances which might occur in the course of subsequent amino acid sequencing.

Molecular physiology of reverse cholesterol transport.

TL;DR: The removal of cholesterol from cells, like its delivery, appears to be specific and well regulated, and RCT can now be understood in molecular terms.
