1 | METHODS AND RESULTS: Mice deficient for oxygen sensor HIF-prolyl hydroxylase 1 (PHD1) were backcrossed onto an atherogenic low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) knockout background and atherosclerosis was studied upon 8 weeks of western-type diet. | Oxygen | egl-9 family hypoxia-inducible factor 2 | Mus musculus |
2 | PHD1-/-LDLR-/- mice presented a sharp reduction in VLDL and LDL plasma cholesterol levels. | Cholesterol | egl-9 family hypoxia-inducible factor 2 | Mus musculus |
3 | Mechanistically, cholesterol-lowering in PHD1 deficient mice was a result of enhanced cholesterol excretion from blood to intestines and ultimately faeces. | Cholesterol | egl-9 family hypoxia-inducible factor 2 | Mus musculus |
4 | Mechanistically, cholesterol-lowering in PHD1 deficient mice was a result of enhanced cholesterol excretion from blood to intestines and ultimately faeces. | Cholesterol | egl-9 family hypoxia-inducible factor 2 | Mus musculus |
5 | In addition, when studying PHD1-/- in diet-induced obesity (14 weeks high-fat diet) mice were less glucose intolerant when compared with WT littermate controls. | Glucose | egl-9 family hypoxia-inducible factor 2 | Mus musculus |
