Sterols 4-10 carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens 92-96 9500571-8 1998 The subsequent esterification of exogenous sterol was not due to CEase, but was completely dependent on ACAT activity. Sterols 43-49 carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens 104-108 9020103-9 1997 The human enzyme in yeast utilized cholesterol as the preferred sterol and was sensitive to competitive (S58035) and non-competitive (DuP 128) ACAT inhibitors. Sterols 40-46 carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens 143-147 9211065-1 1997 The conversion of cholesterol to an esterified storage form by the enzyme acyl-coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase, is a critical component of sterol and membrane homeostasis and represents a significant step in atherogenesis. Sterols 23-29 carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens 74-118 8652654-1 1996 Many studies have shown that sterols can stimulate acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) activity in cells. Sterols 29-36 carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens 51-94 8652654-1 1996 Many studies have shown that sterols can stimulate acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) activity in cells. Sterols 29-36 carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens 96-100 8652654-2 1996 To elucidate this mechanism, effects of sterol-mediated induction on both the enzyme activity of ACAT and its mRNA levels were studied in human hepatoblastoma cell line, HepG2 cells. Sterols 40-46 carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens 97-101 8650549-2 1996 In human cells, sterol is esterified to a storage form by acyl-coenzyme A (CoA): cholesterol acyl transferase (ACAT). Sterols 16-22 carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens 58-109 8650549-2 1996 In human cells, sterol is esterified to a storage form by acyl-coenzyme A (CoA): cholesterol acyl transferase (ACAT). Sterols 16-22 carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens 111-115 7493995-8 1995 Immunoblot analysis showed that the ACAT protein contents in human fibroblast cells, HepG2 cells, or Chinese hamster ovary cells were not affected by sterol in the medium, demonstrating that the main mechanism for sterol-dependent regulation of ACAT activity in these cells is not change in ACAT protein content. Sterols 214-220 carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens 36-40 7822296-3 1995 Experiments performed in intact mammalian cells have shown that the rate of cholesteryl ester synthesis in intact cells, as well as the ACAT activity from cell extracts, are greatly activated by the addition of low density lipoprotein (LDL) or oxygenated sterols such as 25-hydroxycholesterol to the growth medium. Sterols 255-262 carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens 136-140 7822296-4 1995 However, the molecular mechanism(s) by which sterol(s) stimulate the ACAT activity remains to be elucidated. Sterols 45-51 carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens 69-73 7822296-13 1995 The combination of high level of ACAT protein expression and the low level of cellular cholesterol content in the infected cells have provided us a novel opportunity to establish a simple cell-free system, whereby stimulation of ACAT by sterols can be readily demonstrated. Sterols 237-244 carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens 229-233 6651782-1 1983 Membranes prepared from cultured fibroblasts were assayed for acyl-coenzyme A: cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) by a method that relied exclusively on the cholesterol already present on the membranes as the sterol substrate. Sterols 84-90 carboxylesterase 1 Homo sapiens 108-112
