1 | BACKGROUND: Synthetic activators of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) stimulate cholesterol removal from macrophages through PPAR-dependent up-regulation of liver x receptor alpha (LXRalpha) and subsequent induction of cholesterol exporters such as ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) and scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SR-BI). | Cholesterol | peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha | Mus musculus |
2 | BACKGROUND: Synthetic activators of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) stimulate cholesterol removal from macrophages through PPAR-dependent up-regulation of liver x receptor alpha (LXRalpha) and subsequent induction of cholesterol exporters such as ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) and scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SR-BI). | Cholesterol | peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha | Mus musculus |
3 | Pre-treatment of cells with a selective PPARalpha or PPARgamma antagonist completely abolished the effects of 13-HODE on cholesterol efflux and protein levels of genes investigated. | Cholesterol | peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha | Mus musculus |
4 | CONCLUSION: 13-HODE induces cholesterol efflux from macrophages via the PPAR-LXRalpha-ABCA1/SR-BI-pathway. | Cholesterol | peroxisome proliferator activated receptor alpha | Mus musculus |
