1 1536661 Compared with control rats, in insulin-deficient rats less of the phospholipid label was distributed to the lighter HDL fraction and more to the heavier HDL fraction, and this difference was not due to changes in activity of lecithin: cholesterol acyltransferase or in the apparent activity of phospholipid transfer protein.
2 11427203 Baseline HDL cholesterol and phospholipids, pre beta-HDL in incubated plasma, plasma apolipoprotein (apo) AI, PLTP activity and cholesterol efflux to plasma were not different between the groups.
3 11427203 In both groups, HDL lipids, as well as plasma apo AI and PLTP activity decreased after 24 h of insulin (P<0.05 to P<0.01) compared to baseline and recovery, i.e. 1 week after insulin.
4 12662160 The univariate relationship between CETP and LDL-III was no longer significant after adjusting for PLTP activity.
5 12947020 PLTP-deficient mice have demonstrated increased antioxidation potential as well as a decrease in apolipoprotein B secretion and atherosclerotic lesions.
6 15754464 Plasma PLTP activity (2364+/-651 nmol/ml/h versus 1880+/-586 nmol/ml/h in control, mean +/- S.D., P <0.01) and CRP (1.64(0.89-3.23)mg/l versus 0.99(0.53-2.23 mg/l, median (interquartile range), P<0.01) were increased in diabetic subjects.
7 15754464 PLTP activity correlated significantly with age, BMI, HbA1c, log(CRP) and apolipoprotein AI and B in diabetic subjects.
8 15875154 Plasma very low density lipid protein (VLDL)+LDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, HDL phospholipids, apolipoprotein (apo) A-I, apo B, CETP activity, PLTP activity, cholesterol esterification, cholesteryl ester transfer and the capacity of plasma to induce cholesterol efflux from Fu5AH cells and fibroblasts were higher in diabetic patients.
9 18997294 We assessed cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) levels of apolipoprotein E (apoE), phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) activity, cholesterol, secreted amyloid-beta protein precursor alpha and beta (sAbetaPPalpha, sAbetaPPbeta), amyloid-beta peptides 1-40 (Abeta_{40}) and 1-42 (Abeta_{42}), total tau and tau phosphorylated at threonine 181 (pTau) in neurologically healthy, cognitively intact adults.
10 18997294 Using partial correlations of CSF biomarkers with apoE, PLTP activity, age and gender, apoE remained significantly correlated with sAbetaPPalpha, sAbetaPPbeta, Abeta_{40}, total and pTau (p < 0.001).
11 18997294 The presence of apoE epsilon2 was associated with lower levels of apoE, PLTP activity and Abeta_{42}, while APOEepsilon4} had no significant impact on any of the measured variables.
12 19472218 In this study we provide evidence that phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP), one of the main lipid transfer proteins in the brain, significantly reduces levels of phosphorylated tau and increases levels of the inactive form of glycogen synthase kinase-3beta (GSK3 beta) in HCN2 cells.
13 19472218 Furthermore, inhibition of phosphatidylinositol-3 kinase (PI3K) reversed the PLTP-induced increase in levels of GSK3 beta phosphorylated at serine 9 (pGSK3 beta(Ser9)) and partially reversed the PLTP-induced reduction in tau phosphorylation.
14 19472218 We provide evidence that the PLTP-induced changes are not due to activation of Disabled-1 (Dab1), insofar as PLTP reduced levels of total and phosphorylated Dab1 in HCN2 cells.
15 19472218 We have also shown that inhibition of tyrosine kinase activity of insulin receptor (IR) and/or insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1) receptor (IGFR) reverses the PLTP-induced increase in levels of phosphorylated Akt (pAkt(Thr308) and pAkt(Ser473)), suggesting that PLTP-mediated activation of the PI3K/Akt pathway is dependent on IR/IGFR receptor tyrosine kinase activity.
