Chrysin, a polyphenolic compound, possesses antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. In this study, we investigated the effect of chrysin on the expression of A disintegrin and metalloproteinase ...
We have studied the cell viability by MTT assay and foam cell formation by oil red O staining. The mRNA and protein expression of ADAMTS-4 was studied using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPC...
Chrysin's ability to downregulate the expression of ADAMTS-4, a protease involved in degrading the extracellular matrix, bestows upon it a new therapeutic potential for managing atherosclerosis....
The senescence marker p16INK4a, which constitutes part of the genome 9p21.3 cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk allele, is believed to play a role in foam cells formation. This study aims to unravel the...
The mammalian expression plasmid pCMV-p16INK4a was used to induce p16INK4a overexpression in THP-1 macrophages. Next, wild-type and p16INK4a-overexpressed macrophages were incubated with oxidized LDL ...
The findings showed that p16INK4a enhanced foam cells formation with increased scavenger receptors CD36 and LOX-1 expression and reduced cholesterol efflux in THP-1 macrophages. Besides, β-galactosida...
This study provides insights on p16INK4a in mediating macrophages foam cells formation, cellular senescence, and foam cells formation....
Lipid metabolism in macrophages plays a key role in atherosclerosis development. Excessive low-density lipoprotein taken by macrophages leads to foam cell formation. In this study, we aimed to investi...
The foam cell model was build, then treated with astaxanthin, and tested the content of TC and FC. And proteomics analysis was used in macrophage, macrophage-derived foam cells and macrophage-derived ...
Total cholesterol (TC) while free cholesterol (FC) increased in foam cells treated with astaxanthin. The proteomics data set presents a global view of the critical pathways involved in lipid metabolis...
The present finding provide new insights into the mechanism of astaxanthin regulate lipid metabolism in macrophage foam cells....
Atherosclerosis is a major cause of cerebral and cardiovascular diseases. Intravascular plaques, a well-known pathological finding of atherosclerosis, have a necrotic core composed of macrophages and ...
Arterial macrophage foam cells are filled with cholesterol ester (CE) stored in cytosolic lipid droplets (LDs). Foam cells are central players in progression of atherosclerosis as regulators of lipid ...
Foam cells play crucial roles in all phases of atherosclerosis. However, until now, the specific mechanisms by which these foam cells contribute to atherosclerosis remain unclear. We aimed to identify...
Microarray data of atherosclerosis and foam cells were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Differentially expression genes (DEGs) were screened using the "LIMMA" package in R s...
A total of 407 DEGs in atherosclerosis and 219 DEGs in foam cells were identified, and the DEGs in atherosclerosis were mainly involved in cell proliferation and differentiation. CSF1R and PLAUR were ...
CSF1R and PLAUR are key hub genes of foam cells and may play an important role in the biological process of atherosclerosis. These results advance our understanding of the mechanism behind atheroscler...
Arterial macrophage cholesterol accumulation and impaired cholesterol efflux lead to foam cell formation and the development of atherosclerosis. Modified lipoproteins interact with toll-like receptors...
Arterial Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) play a central role in the onset and progression of atherosclerosis. Upon exposure to pathological stimuli, they can take on alternative phenotypes that, ...
Ten undescribed diterpenoids namely rubellawus E-N of structural types pimarane (1, 3-4), nor-abietane (2), nor-pimarane (5-6), isopimarane (7-9), and nor-isopimarane (10), along with eleven known com...
The current literature suggests the significant role of foam cells in the initiation of atherosclerosis through the formation of a necrotic core in atherosclerotic plaques. Moreover, an important peri...
An electronic search was undertaken in three databases (Pubmed, Scopus, and Web of Science) to identify the studies published from January 2000 until March 2023. The risk of bias in each study was als...
After the completion of the screening process, 11 in-vitro studies met the inclusion criteria and were included for further assessments. Nine of these studies represented a medium risk of bias, while ...
Based on the results of this study, it can be concluded that P. gingivalis can effectively promote foam cell formation through various pathogenic elements and this bacterial species can affect the exp...
