Plasma levels of low density lipoprotein cholesterol （LDL-C） are positively correlated with the risk of atherosclerosis. High plasma LDL concentrations in patients with hypercholesterolemia lead to build-up of LDL in the inner walls of the arteries, which becomes oxidized and promotes the formation of foam cells, consequently initiating atherosclerosis. Plasma LDL is mainly cleared through the LDL receptor （LDLR） pathway. Mutations in the LDLR cause familiar hyperch- olesterolemia and increase the risk of premature coronary heart disease. The expression of LDLR is regulated at the transcriptional level via the sterol regulatory element binding protein 2 （SREBP-2） and at the posttranslational levels mainly through proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin-type 9 （PCSK9） and inducible degrader of the LDLR （IDOL）. In this review, we summarize the latest advances in the studies of PCSK9.展开更多

Methods. Macrophages in mice were treated with curcumin, which was purified from the ethanolly extraction of Rhizoma Curcumae Longae for 24 h. The LDL receptors expressed in the macrophages were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA） and assay of Dil labeled LDL uptake by flow cytometer. Results： It was found for the first time that 10 μmol/L-50 μmol/L curcumin could obviously up-regulate the expression of LDL receptor in macrophages in mice, and a dose-effect relationship was demonstrated. Conclusion： One of the lipid-lowering mechanisms of traditional Chinese medicine, Rhizoma Curcumae Longae, was completed by the effect of curcumin through the up-regulation of the expression of LDL receptor.展开更多

In the study on binding of VLDLR to their nuclein labeled natural ligands (VLDL and β-VLDL), it was found that surface binding of 125I-VLDL or 125I-β-VLDL of ldl-A7 cells transfected with type I VLDLR recombinant (ldl-A7-VRI) was more higher than that of ldl-A7 cells transfected with type II VLDLR recombinant (ldl-A7-VRII). After being incubated with VLDL for different time, the contents of triglyceride and total cholesterol in cells were mensurated, and the formation of foam cells and accumulation of lipid in cells was observed by oil-red O staining. The results showed that the contents of triglyceride and total cholesterol in ldl-A7-VR I were much higher than those in ldl-A7-VR II, and ldl-A7-VR I could transform into foam cells notably. It was suggested that type I VLDLR binds with relative higher affinity to VLDL and β-VLDL, and internalizes much more lipoprotein into cells. As a result, we can conclude that type I VLDLR plays a more important role in lipoprotein metabolism and foam cells formation than type II VLDLR.展开更多

Methods A total of 1842 T2DM cases （507 newly diagnosed cases and 1335 previously diagnosed cases） and 7777 controls were included in this case-control study. PCR-RFLP was conducted to detect the genotype of the two single nucleotide polymorphisms （SNPs）. Odds ratios （ORs） and 95% confidence intervals （95% CIs） were calculated to describe the strength of the association by logistic regression. Results In the study subjects, neither rs12363572 nor rs4930588 was significantly associated with T2DM, even after adjusting for relevant covariates. When stratified by body mass index （BMI）, the two SNPs were also not associated with T2DM. Among the 3 common haplotypes, only haplotype ~ was associated with reduced risk of T2DM （OR 0.820, 95% CI 0.732-0.919）. In addition, rs12363572 was associated with BMI （P〈0.001） and rs4930588 was associated with triglyceride levels （P=0.043） in 507 newly diagnosed T2DM cases but not in healthy controls. Conclusion No LRP5 variant was found to be associated with T2DM in Han Chinese, but haplotype TT was found to be associated with T2DM.展开更多

The height,weight,waist circumference,blood pressure, and serum total cholesterol(TC),triglyceride(TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),low-density lipoprotein cholesterol(LDL-C),apolipoprotein(Apo) A1, and ApoB were measured.Body massindex(BMI,kg/m2) was calculated.Genotyping of the LDL-RAvaⅡwas performed by polymerse chain reaction and restriction fragment length polymorphism combined with gel electrophoresis,and then confirmed by direct sequencing.Results(l)The height,weight,serum TC,HDL-C,LDL-C,ApoAl levels and the ratio of ApoAl to ApoB were lower in Bai Ku Yao than in Han Chinese(P【0.01 for all),whereas the percentage of subjects who consumed alcohol or smoked cigarettes was higher in Bai Ku Yao than in Han Chinese(P【0.01 for each).(2) The frequency of A+ allele in Bai Ku Yao was 34.5%,and the frequencies of A-A-,A-A+ and A+A + genotypes were 42.6%,45.9%and 11.5%;respectively. The frequency of A+ allele in Han Chinese was 19.3%(P【0.001),and the frequencies of A-A-,A-A + and A+A+ genotypes were 64.9%,31.6%and 3.5%(P【0.001);respectively. The frequencies of A-A-,A-A+ and A+A+ genotypes in Bai Ku Yao were significant difference between males and females,between normal TC and high TC subgroup, and between normal LDL-C and high LDL-C subgroup (P【0.05 for all),whereas the frequencies of A- and A+ ? alleles in Han Chinese were significant difference between males and females(P【0.05).(3) Serum LDL-C levels in Bai Ku Yao were significant difference among the A-A-, A-A+ and A+A+ genotypes(P【0.05),the A+ carriers had higher serum LDL-C levels.Serum HDL-C levels in Han Chiese were significant difference among the A-A-,A-A + and A+A+ genotypes(P【0.01),the A+ carriers had higher serum HDL-C levels.(4) After adjusting other factors,the prevalence of LDL-C abnormality was still higher in Han Chiese than in Bai Ku Yao.The prevalence of TC abnormality in Han Chinese was almost twice high as in Bai Ku Yao. The age and diet were common risk factor for TC abnormality. No effect of AvaⅡgenotype or alcohol consumption on the TC abnormality was found,but the combination of geno-type and alcohol consumption can increase the prevalence of TC abnormality[Exp(B) =(1.154)].Age was negatively cor- related with TG level.Conclusions Serum TC and LDL-C levels were lower in Bai Ku Yao than in Han Chinese.There were significant differences in the AvaⅡallele and genotype frequencies between the he A+ carriers in Bai Ku Yao had higher serum LDL-C levels,whereas the A+ carriers in Han had higher serum HDL-C levels.Interactions between alcohol consumption or cigarette smoking and the LDL-R AvaⅡgenotype were also observed.The differences in the serum lipid profiles between the two ethnic groups might partly result from different genotypic frequency of LDL-R AvaⅡpolymorphism or differentgene-enviromental interactions.Bai Ku Yao and Han population,the frequency of A + allele was higher in Bai Ku Yao than in Han.T between the two ethnic groups.Therefore,the aim of the present study was to detect the展开更多

文摘目的分析低密度脂蛋白受体相关蛋白5(low density lipoprotein receptor related protein 5,LRP5)rs556442、rs312778位点基因多态性及突变在绝经后女性2型糖尿病(type 2 diabetes mellitus,T2DM)患者中骨量异常的意义。方法收集2021年5月至2023年5月新疆石河子地区的142例绝经后女性资料进行回顾性分析,分为正常对照组(A组,n=29)、T2DM组(B组,n=30)、骨量降低组(C组,n=28)、骨量降低+T2DM组(D组,n=55)。收集记录相关基线资料,运用全自动生化测定仪测定受试者血糖、血脂及骨代谢指标。通过双能X线骨密度仪测定骨密度(bone mineral density BMD),LRP5基因位点多态性采用飞行时间质谱法(MALDI-TOF-MS)测定,采用SNPscan技术对上述SNP位点进行基因分型。结果①四组基线资料比较,绝经年限、年龄及腰臀比(waist hip ratio,WHR)比较差异具有统计学意义(P<0.05);②与A组相比,B组的空腹血糖(FPG)、糖化血红蛋白(HbA1c)升高(P<0.05);D组的FPG、HbA1c的血清学水平升高,甘油三酯(TG)血清学水平降低(P<0.05);③rs556442位点:与A组相比,D组基因型分布(AA/AG/GG基因型)有统计学意义(P<0.05);rs312778位点组间基因型(CC/CT/TT基因型)及等位基因分布频率均无统计学意义(P>0.05);④rs556442位点:与AA基因型相比,B、C组AG/GG基因型的股骨颈BMD水平降低;D组AG/GG型的HDL血清学水平降低(P<0.05)。rs312778位点:与CC基因型相比,A组HbA1C、FPG血清学水平较CT/TT基因型低(P<0.05);D组CT/TT基因型的低密度脂蛋白(LDL)血清学水平升高(P<0.05);⑤多元线性回归分析:rs556442位点,TG增加是腰L_(1~4)BMD降低的危险因素(P<0.05);rs312778位点,体质量指数(body mass index,BMI)降低是腰L_(1~4)及股骨颈BMD降低的危险因素,TG增加是腰L_(1~4)BMD降低的危险因素(P<0.05);⑥在rs556442、rs312778位点骨量异常与基因型分布均无统计学意义(P>0.05)。结论新疆石河子地区绝经后T2DM女性患者LRP5基因rs556442、rs312778基因位点的突变可能与骨量降低有关。
