## Abstract ## Objective Findings of recent in vivo and in vitro studies suggest that oxidized lowβdensity lipoprotein (oxβLDL) plays a role in the degeneration of cartilage. The purpose of this study was to determine whether oxβLDL induces chondrocyte senescence through binding to lectinβlike oxβ

## Abstract ## Objective To investigate for the presence of oxidized lowβdensity lipoprotein (oxβLDL) and lectinβlike oxidized LDL receptor 1 (LOXβ1) in cartilage specimens from rheumatoid arthritis (RA) joints and to determine whether the interaction of oxβLDL with LOXβ1 can induce matrix metallo
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) can cause early disability and death from premature atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Patients homozygous for the disease have very high plasma cholesterol, extensive xanthomatosis, and die from atherosclerosis in childhood or early adulthood. Past attempts t
The effect of lipoproteins on adult rat CNS microglial nitric oxide (NO) production was studied. Incubation of cultured microglia with very low density lipoprotein (VLDL) for 48 h induced a 13-fold increase in NO production, compared with control. However, the induction of NO was negated when cells
The responsiveness of low density lipoprotein (LDL) binding and uptake was measured in a human hepatoblastoma cell line, Hep G2. These cells exhibited both saturable, high-affinity and nonsaturable low-affinity components similar to that described for LDL binding in other mammalian cells. In additio
