In an attempt to identify transcription factors which activate sterol-regulatory element-binding protein 1c (SREBP-1c) transcription, we screened an expression cDNA library from adipose tissue of SREBP-1 knockout mice using a...

The asialoglycoprotein receptor is an abundant hetero-oligomeric endocytic receptor that is predominantly expressed on the sinusoidal surface of the hepatocytes. A number of physiological and pathophysiological functions have been ascribed...

Metabolism . 2001 Feb; 50(1):36-40. PMID: 11172472
Thiazolidinediones (TZDs) are antidiabetic insulin-sensitizing agents that bind to peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) and have potent adipogenic effects on 3T3-L1 preadipocytes. In fully differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes, TZDs markedly decreased...

Atherosclerosis . 2001 Jan; 154(1):51-60. PMID: 11137082
In order to determine the contribution of the low density lipoprotein receptor (LDL-R) to the removal of apoB-containing native lipoproteins by macrophages, we compared the uptake of beta-VLDL in peritoneal...

Abetalipoproteinemia (ABL) is an inherited disease characterized by the virtual absence of apolipoprotein B (apoB)-containing lipoproteins from plasma. Only limited numbers of families have been screened for mutations in the...

Recent data suggest that sterol regulatory-binding protein (SREBP)-1c plays a key role in the transcriptional regulation of different lipogenic genes mediating lipid synthesis as a key regulator of fuel metabolism....

Acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) catalyzes esterification of cellular cholesterol. To investigate the role of ACAT-1 in atherosclerosis, we have generated ACAT-1 null (ACAT-1-/-) mice. ACAT activities were present in the liver...
