Cholesterol-lowering Decreased mTOR Complex 2 Signaling and Enhanced Antitumor Immunity

Project description:In an exploratory human study, RNAseq was performed to quantify immune cells present in prostate cancer. Two patients were examined, and both showed increased CD8+ lymphocytes and M1 macrophages scores following cholesterol-lowering intervention with the combination of ezetimibe and simvastatin.

Gene expression profiling of human atherosclerotic plaque: Laser capture microscopy of smooth muscle cells and macrophages

Project description:In order to identify potential new biomarkers of atherosclerotic plaque composition we performed a large scale analysis of gene expression patterns in human atherosclerotic lesions. Whole genome expression analysis of 101 peripheral plaques identified a robust gene signature (1514 genes) dominated by inflammatory processes, and cholesterol metabolism and storage genes. Specific pathways enriched in this signature included activation of the Toll-like receptor signaling pathway, T-cell activation, cholesterol efflux, oxidative stress response, inflammatory cytokine production, vasoconstriction and lysosomal activity. Analysis of gene expression in plaque micro-dissected material revealed that the signature is strongly up-regulated in macrophage-rich regions and down-regulated in regions with high smooth muscle cell content. A smaller qPCR biomarker panel and inflammatory composite score (ICS) were developed to facilitate clinical translation of discoveries from gene expression profiling. We found that ICS correlates with histological features related to plaque vulnerability. In addition, ICS is able to separate groups of plaques obtained from symptomatic and asymptomatic patients undergoing carotid endarerectomy. In summary, we identified a robust mRNA biomarker panel associated with histo-pathological as well as clinical hallmarks of vulnerable atherosclerotic plaque. This panel may be used as a diagnostic and prognostic tool in clinical setting to evaluate novel anti-atherosclerotic therapies. Laser captured smooth muscle cells and macrophages from carotid plaque sections (n=3) profiled in the Merck/Agilent 44k v1.1. The reference sample was a pool RNA from whole sections.

Stage-specific remodeling of atherosclerotic lesions upon cholesterol lowering in LDL receptor knockout mice.

Project description:Reducing the concentration of circulating lipids leads to decreased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality, but the dynamic remodeling that established atherosclerotic lesions undergo upon lipid lowering is poorly understood. Early or advanced lesions in the aortic root were induced by feeding LDL receptor knockout mice a high-fat, high-cholesterol Western-type diet for 5 or 9 weeks, respectively. In the first week after switching to a chow diet, plasma total cholesterol levels dropped 70%, but both early and advanced lesions increased in size. Early lesions grew because of an increase in smooth muscle cells; advanced lesions had an enlargement of absolute macrophage area. From 1 to 3 weeks after the diet switch, plasma total cholesterol levels were completely normalized, but the size of early lesions remained stable; however, advanced lesions became smaller due to a reduction of the absolute macrophage area. From 3 to 6 weeks, both early and advanced lesions progressed further, as a result of expansion of the absolute collagen and necrotic core area. In contrast, early lesions became proinflammatory, as evidenced by the increased infiltration of neutrophils and increased oxidative stress, probably caused by the activation of mast cells in the adventitia. Thus, the severity of atherosclerotic lesions affects their dynamic response to lipid lowering, indicating the importance of establishing stage-specific therapeutic protocols for the treatment of atherosclerosis.

Adenosine-rich extract of Ganoderma lucidum: a safe and effective lipid-lowering substance via regulating expression and modulation of PPAR signaling pathway

Project description:Ganoderma lucidum is a traditional Chinese medicine with a variety of active compounds and possessing adequate lipid-lowering and anti-atherosclerotic effects. However, its main active components and potential mechanisms still remain unclear. Here, we evaluated the anti-hyperlipidemic effect of the adenosine extract from Ganoderma lucidum (AEGL) in high-fat-diet (HFD)-induced hyperlipidemic ApoE-/- mice and explored the underlying biological mechanism by multi-omics analysis. Treatment with AEGL for 8 weeks significantly decreased the serum levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c) by 45.59%, 41.22%, and 39.02%, respectively, as well as reduced liver TC and TG by 44.15% and 76.23%, compared with the HFD-only group. We also observed significant amelioration of hepatic steatosis without liver and kidney damage after AEGL treatment. Regulating the expression and acetylation/crotonylation of proteins involved in the PPAR signaling pathway may be one of the potential mechanisms involved in the observed lipid-lowering effects of AEGL.

IL-1β inhibition partially negates the beneficial effects of diet-induced lipid lowering

Project description:Thromboembolic events secondary to rupture or erosion of advanced atherosclerotic lesions are the leading cause of death in the world. The most common and effective means to reduce these major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE), including myocardial infarction (MI) and stroke, is aggressive lipid lowering via a combination of drugs and dietary modifications. However, little is known regarding the effects of reducing dietary lipids on the composition and stability of advanced atherosclerotic lesions, the mechanisms that regulate these processes, and what therapeutic approaches might augment the benefits of lipid lowering.

Hepatic transcript modules are predictive of atherosclerotic lesion burden after a 2-year high cholesterol, high fat diet challenge in baboons [LCLF]

Project description:Analysis of hepatic transcript data using unbiased Weighted Gene Correlation Network Analysis (WGCNA) to identify significant modules of genes correlated with lesion burden and performed pathway enrichment analysis of genes in significant modules. The hypothesis tested in the present study was that transcript modules are predictive of atherosclerotic lesion burden after a high cholesterol, high fat diet challenge. Results of the study provide an understanding of the key pathways and genes underlying atherosclerotic lesion burdenafter high cholesterol and high fat diet challenge in baboons .
