Endothelial PHACTR1 Promotes Endothelial Activation and Atherosclerosis by Repressing PPAR γ Activity Under Disturbed Flow in Mice
CONCLUSIONS: Our results identified endothelial PHACTR1 as a novel PPARγ corepressor to promote atherosclerosis in disturbed flow regions. Endothelial PHACTR1 is a potential therapeutic target for atherosclerosis treatment.PMID:37199156 | DOI:10.1161/ATVBAHA.122.318173

GSE222499 Liver-specific FGFR4 knockdown in mice on a HFD increases bile acid synthesis and improves hepatic steatosis II
Contributor : Softic SamirSeries Type : Expression profiling by high throughput sequencingOrganism : Mus musculusNonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease with increased risk in patients with metabolic syndrome. There are no FDA approved treatments, but farnesoid X receptor (FXR) agonists have shown promising results in clinical studies for NAFLD management. In addition to FXR,  fibroblast growth factor receptor FGFR4 is a key mediator of hepatic bile acid synthesis. Using N-acetylgalactosamine-conjugated siRNA, we knocked down FGFR4 specifically in the liver of mice on chow or...

Cardiac Alarmins as Residual Risk Markers of Atherosclerosis under Hypolipidemic Therapy
Int J Mol Sci. 2022 Sep 22;23(19):11174. doi: 10.3390/ijms231911174.ABSTRACTIncreased levels of low-density lipoproteins are the main risk factor in the initiation and progression of atherosclerosis. Although statin treatment can effectively lower these levels, there is still a residual risk of cardiovascular events. We hypothesize that a specific panel of stress-sensing molecules (alarmins) could indicate the persistence of silent atherosclerosis residual risk. New Zealand White rabbits were divided into: control group (C), a group that received a high-fat diet for twelve weeks (Au), and a treated hyperlipidemic group wit...

Hypercholesterolemia and 27-Hydroxycholesterol Increase S100A8 and RAGE Expression in the Brain: a Link Between Cholesterol, Alarmins, and Neurodegeneration
We report that a high-fat/high-cholesterol diet leads to an i ncrease in S100A8 production in the brain. In CYP27Tg, we report an increase of S100A8 and its receptor RAGE in the hippocampus under elevated 27-OH in the brain. Using siRNA, we found that 27-OH upregulation of RAGE in astrocytes and neurons is mediated by the nuclear receptor RXRγ. Silencing RXRγ in neurons prevented 27-OH-mediated upregulation of RAGE. These results show that S100A8 alarmin and RAGE respond to high levels of 27-OH in the brain in both neurons and astrocytes through RXRγ. Our study supports the notion that 27-OH mediates detrimental effects...

Research Articles Hepatocyte TLR4 triggers inter-hepatocyte Jagged1/Notch signaling to determine NASH-induced fibrosis
Aberrant hepatocyte Notch activity is critical to the development of nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH)–induced liver fibrosis, but mechanisms underlying Notch reactivation in developed liver are unclear. Here, we identified that increased expression of the Notch ligand Jagged1 (JAG1) tracked with Notch activation and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) activity score (NAS) in human liver biopsy specimens and mouse NASH models. The increase in Jag1 was mediated by hepatocyte Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)–nuclear factor B (NF-B) signaling in pericentral hepatocytes. Hepatocyte-specific Jag1 overexpression ex...

FOXO3a regulates lipid accumulation and adipocyte inflammation in adipocytes through autophagy
ConclusionFOXO3a could promote lipid accumulation and inflammation in differentiated 3T3-L1 adipocytes by targeting autophagy. Our results provide a new theoretical basis for FOXO3a to regulate obesity.
