LDL Receptor Regulates the ReverseTransport of Macrophage-Derived Unesterified Cholesterol via Concerted Action of the HDL-LDL Axis: Insight From Mouse Models. The HDL (high-density lipoprotein)-mediated stimulation of cellular cholesterol efflux initiates macrophage-specific reverse cholesterol transport (m-RCT), which ends in the fecal excretion of macrophage-derived unesterified cholesterol
Sequential forward and reversetransport of the Na+ Ca2+ exchanger generates Ca2+ oscillations within mitochondria Mitochondrial Ca homoeostasis regulates aerobic metabolism and cell survival. Ca flux into mitochondria is mediated by the mitochondrial calcium uniporter (MCU) channel whereas Ca export is often through an electrogenic Na-Ca exchanger. Here, we report remarkable functional
was observed. However, the decreased rate of transport was associated with a reduction of the N206S transporter in the plasma membrane. Under ionic conditions, which favor the reverse operation mode of the transporter, N206S exhibited an increased reversetransport capacity. Furthermore, if coexpressed in the same cell, N206S manifested a dominant negative effect on the wild-type GLT1 activity, whereas
reduced the inhibitory activity of the active components on lung cancer and also decreased the ROS content of cells. Analysis of glutathione synthesis-related proteins showed a decrease in the expression of glutaminase, cystine/glutamate reversetransporter (SLC7A11), and glutathione synthase (GS), while the expression of glutamate cysteine ligase modified subunit (GCLM) was increased. In the apoptosis
after the treatment of GLP by activing Nrf2-Keap1 and inhibiting NF-κB signal pathways. GLP promoted cholesterol reversetransport by LXRα-ABCA1/ABCG1 signaling, increased the expressions of CYP7A1 and CYP27A1 responsible for bile acids production, accompanied by inhibition of intestinal FXR-FGF15 levels. Besides, multiple target proteins involved in lipid metabolism were also significantly modulated
including one-tissue compartmental model (1T1k), reversible one-tissue compartmental model (1T2k), irreversible two-tissue compartment model (2T3k) and reversible two-tissue compartmental model (2T4k) were fitted to each tissue TAC. Various rate constants, including K (forward transport rate from plasma to the reversible compartment), k (reversetransport rate from the reversible compartment to plasma), k
to measure the protective and anti-ferroptotic effects of QXJYG in vivo and in vitro. The glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4)/cystine glutamate reversetransporter (xCT) signal pathway was examined by immunohistochemistry and western blotting. QXJYG attenuated AS progression and plaque vulnerability. Characteristic morphological changes of ferroptosis in the QXJYG-treated animals were rare. Total iron
. We found that both NET and DAT are present and can uptake substrate from the extracellular space at baseline. Not only was DAT expressed in cultured MDMs, but it was also detected in a subset of intestinal macrophages in situ. Surprisingly, we discovered a NET-independent, DAT-mediated immunomodulatory mechanism in response to LPS. LPS induced reversetransport of dopamine through DAT, engaging
, enhanced cholesterol efflux and reversetransport due to Epsin deficiency was suppressed by the reduction of ABCG1. Our findings suggest that targeting Epsins in lesional macrophages may offer therapeutic benefits for advanced atherosclerosis by reducing CD36-mediated lipid uptake and increasing ABCG1-mediated cholesterol efflux.

. Disruptions to the DA system are implicated in a number of neuropsychiatric disorders, including attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and, more recently, Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). An ASD-associated de novo mutation in the SLC6A3 gene resulting in a threonine to methionine substitution at site 356 (DAT T356M) was recently identified and has been shown to drive persistent reversetransport
the promotion of colorectal cancer to metastasis by modulating intracellular cholesterol metabolism. Furthermore, we propose apabetalone, an orally available small molecule that is currently being evaluated in clinical trials for the treatment of atherosclerosis, as a new putative therapeutic option to prevent colorectal cancer progression by increasing APOA1 expression and regulating reversetransport
degradation for efficient cross-presentation, the dislocation of antigens from endosomal compartment into the cytosol, the reversetransport of proteasome-derived peptides for loading on MHC I and the translocation of the cross-presentation machinery from the ER to endosomes. We try to highlight recent advances, discuss some of the controversial data and point out some of the major open questions
Effects of N-alkyl-4-methylamphetamine optical isomers on plasma membrane monoamine transporters and abuse-related behavior 4-Methylamphetamine (4-MA) is an emerging drug of abuse that acts as a substrate at plasma membrane transporters for dopamine (DAT), norepinephrine (NET), and serotonin (SERT), thereby causing nonexocytotic release of monoamine transmitters via reversetransport. Prior
stroke. Here, we show that in rats and mice, ischemic conditions trigger activation of myelinic NMDA receptors incorporating GluN2C/D subunits following release of axonal vesicular glutamate into the peri-axonal space under the myelin sheath. Glial sources of glutamate such as reversetransport did not contribute significantly to this phenomenon. We demonstrate selective myelin uptake and retention
Ezetimibe Increases Endogenous Cholesterol Excretion in Humans. Ezetimibe improves cardiovascular outcomes when added to optimum statin treatment. It lowers low-density lipoprotein cholesterol and percent intestinal cholesterol absorption, but the exact cardioprotective mechanism is unknown. We tested the hypothesis that the dominant effect of ezetimibe is to increase the reversetransport
effect and thus reverse MDR. Therefore, it is of great necessity to investigate more POPs that have potential to reversetransporters-mediated MDR. We aimed to identify POPs as the chemical basis responsible for circumventing ABC transporters-mediated MDR by M. tenacissima. The MDR reversal effects of M. tenacissima crude extract together with a series of isolated POPs were evaluated on several MDR
of MDPV (1nM) can cause reversetransport of DA via DAT. Notably, administration of MDPV leads to hyperlocomotion in Drosophila melanogaster. These data describe further how MDPV acts at the DAT, possibly paving the way for novel treatment strategies for individuals who abuse bath salts.
