High impact information on Olr1

 

Chemical compound and disease context of Olr1

 

Biological context of Olr1

  • To further explore the relationship between the structure and function of LOX-1, a mutagenesis study was carried out [7].
  • The results indicate that alloimmune responses induce up-regulation of LOX-1 mRNA in transplanted hearts [8].
  • Lectin-like oxidized low-density-lipoprotein (oxLDL) receptor-1 (LOX-1) is a cell-surface endocytosis receptor for atherogenic oxLDL, which is highly expressed in endothelial cells [9].
  • There was evidence of intense oxidative stress (nitrotyrosine staining), inflammation (CD68 staining), and expression of adhesion molecules and the ox-LDL receptor LOX-1 (gene array analysis) in the atherosclerotic tissues [10].
  • CONCLUSIONS: Our findings suggest that histone acetylation could play some role in atherogenesis by modulating expressions of oxLDL receptor and some proatherogenic genes [11].
 

Anatomical context of Olr1

  • BACKGROUND: We hypothesized that atherosclerosis inhibits NO-mediated endothelium-dependent dilation of coronary arterioles through interaction of ox-LDL with its receptor, LOX-1, through the production of O2ÿ- in endothelial cells [12].
  • CONCLUSION: LOX-1 induction in arthritic joints might play a role in promoting joint inflammation and cartilage destruction by mediating leukocyte infiltration into the arthritic joints of ZIA rats [6].
  • These data imply that lipoproteins can further contribute to foam cell development in atherosclerosis by up-regulating a major OxLDL receptor [13].
  • Ox-LDL, a ligand of LOX-1, was also detected in articular chondrocytes [6].
  • LOX-1 was also expressed weakly on both joint cartilage and synovium [6].
 

Associations of Olr1 with chemical compounds

  • CONCLUSIONS: These results suggest that ox-LDL impairs endothelium-dependent NO-mediated dilation of coronary arterioles by activation of a signaling cascade involving LOX-1 and NAD(P)H oxidase expression [12].
  • This was strong evidence for the involvement of all six Cys in the intrachain disulfide bonds required for proper folding, processing and transport of LOX-1 [7].
  • Administration of anti-LOX-1 antibody, which blocks LOX-1 activity, suppressed joint swelling (by 33.5%), leukocyte infiltration, and joint nitrite accumulation at 24 hours, as well as cartilage destruction at 7 days, compared with control rats [6].
  • While rosuvastatin and candesartan each had a small inhibitory effect on the expression of LOX-1 in the atherosclerotic tissues, the combination totally blocked the up-regulation of LOX-1 [2].
  • By means of glycyrrhizin (GL)-affinity column chromatography, a GL-binding lipoxygenase (gbLOX) was selectively purified from the partially purified soybean LOX-1 fraction [14].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Olr1

  • We cloned mouse LOX-1 cDNA to take advantage of a gene-targeting technique to clarify the role of LOX-1 in vivo [15].
  • LOX-1 mRNA expression was measured by RT-PCR [8].
  • Marked increase in LOX-1 mRNA expression was observed only in allografts [8].
  • METHODS: LOX-1 expression and ox-LDL accumulation in arthritic joints were detected by immunohistochemistry using specific mouse anti-LOX-1 and anti-ox-LDL monoclonal antibodies, respectively [6].
  • Increased expression of lectin-like oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor-1 (LOX-1), the receptor for OxLDL in endothelial cells, has been demonstrated in the atherosclerotic plaques from experimental atherosclerotic animal models and human clinical samples [16].
