Events leading to hyperactivity of human blood platelets are accompanied by an enhanced risk of atherosclerosis and arterial thrombosis. Lipoprotein disorders affect platelet functions, and hypersensitive platelets are observed in various stages of hyperlipidemia. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL), a circulating complex of lipids and proteins that is increased in hypercholesterolemia, enhances platelet function and increases sensitivity of platelets to several naturally occurring agonists. LDL sensitizes platelets via binding of apoB-100 to a receptor on the platelet membrane and via transfer of lipids to the platelet membrane. The receptor that mediates binding of LDL to the platelet and initiates subsequent intracellular signaling cascades has not yet been identified. Modification of native LDL generates a platelet-activating particle, and this interaction might contribute to the development of the atherosclerotic plaque. Lysophosphatidic acid is formed upon mild oxidation of LDL and is responsible for subsequent platelet activation induced by the modified LDL particle. Thus, LDL changes the functions of platelets via a broad spectrum of interactions. 相似文献

-Tocopheryl-succinate (TS) is a synthetic, anti-neoplastic derivative of -tocopherol. Here we studied the effects of free and high-density lipoprotein subclass 3 (HDL3)-associated TS on the growth of human (A549) and mouse Lewis (LL2) lung carcinoma cells. Both free and HDL3-associated TS inhibited A549 growth in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. Treatment of A549 cells with TS-enriched HDL3 led to DNA fragmentation and a time-dependent decrease in immunoreactivity of poly(ADP-ribose)polymerase. Uptake experiments revealed a high capacity for selective TS uptake in excess of holoparticle endocytosis. Overexpression of scavenger receptor class B, type I (SR-BI), the prime receptor mediating selective lipid uptake, in A549 cells resulted in significantly increased selective TS uptake, a finding associated with complete cellular growth arrest. The present in vitro findings were verified in an in vivo model: tumor inoculation in C57BL6 was performed with either wild-type, -galactosidase- or SR-BI-overexpressing LL2 cells. After tumor inoculation, the animals received six consecutive intravenous injections of TS. This experimental setup resulted in significantly reduced tumor burden in animals that were inoculated with SR-BI-overexpressing LL2 cells but not in animals inoculated with wild-type or -galactocidase-transfected cells. Based on our in vitro and in vivo findings, we propose that SR-BI could provide a novel route for HDL3-mediated drug delivery of anti-neoplastic drugs.Received 8 March 2004; received after revision 7 April 2004; accepted 26 April 2004 相似文献

The synthesis of acute-phase protein serum amyloid A (SAA) is largely regulated by inflammation- associated cytokines and
a high concentration of circulating SAA may represent an ideal marker for acute and chronic inflammatory diseases. However,
SAA is also synthesized in extrahepatic tissues, e.g. human carcinoma metastases and cancer cell lines. An increasing body
of in vitro data supports the concept of involvement of SAA in carcinogenesis and neoplastic diseases. Accumulating evidence suggests
that SAA might be included in a group of biomarkers to detect a pattern of physiological events that reflect the growth of
malignancy and host response. This review is meant to provide a broad overview of the many ways that SAA could contribute
to tumour development, and accelerate tumour progression and metastasis, and to gain a better understanding of this acute-phase
reactant as a possible link between chronic inflammation and neoplasia.
