1 11714842 Our understanding of apolipoprotein A-II (apoA-II) physiology is much more limited than that of apoA-I.
2 11714842 The increased concentration of apoB-containing lipoproteins present in apoA-II transgenic mice explains, in part, why these animals present increased atherosclerosis susceptibility.
3 11714842 We suggest that the existence of apoA-II or apoA-I in HDL could be an important signal for specific interaction with HDL receptors such as cubilin or heat shock protein 60.
4 19444937 In several studies, we have described that a complete or partial lack of vitamin D action (VDR-/- mice and CYP27B1-/-) show almost similar phenotype as FGF23-/- or Klotho-/- mice.
5 19444937 Due to its high serum concentration and better uptake of calcidiol-DBP by the target cells through the cubilin-megalin system, calcidiol seems to be an important circulating hormone.
6 19444937 Also, the insulin-like growth factor signalling pathway (IGF-1, IGFBPs, IGFR) and fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) regulate growth, aging and cancer.
7 19444937 Also NF-kappaB and telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) might be molecular mechanisms mediating vitamin D action in aging and cancer.
8 20876762 Normally, renal reabsorption of vitamin D-binding protein-bound 25D(3) absolutely requires receptor-mediated endocytosis via a receptor complex containing megalin, cubilin, and disabled-2 (Dab2), whereas an absence of megalin or its endocytic partners can lead to a marked urinary loss of 25D and severe vitamin D deficiency.
9 20876762 In the present study, we utilized Zucker diabetic fatty Rats (ZDF) to demonstrate that renal reuptake of the 25D(3)-DBP complex was compromised in ZDF animals, which was reflected by a reduction in expression of megalin and Dab2.
10 20876762 Taken together, these are the first reports to our knowledge that associate compromised renal reabsorption of the 25D(3)-DBP complex with expression of megalin and its endocytic partners in NIDDM, which in turn can lead to compromised vitamin D status.
11 21429972 Most low-molecular-weight proteins filtered by the glomerulus are removed in the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) by megalin/cubilin-dependent receptor-mediated endocytosis.
12 21429972 Expression of megalin and cubilin was unchanged in Limp-2(-/-) mice, however, and the initial uptake of injected Alexa Fluor 555-conjugated bovine serum albumin (Alexa-BSA) was similar to wild-type mice, indicating that megalin/cubilin-dependent, receptor-mediated endocytosis was unaffected.
13 21429972 Most low-molecular-weight proteins filtered by the glomerulus are removed in the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) by megalin/cubilin-dependent receptor-mediated endocytosis.
14 21429972 Expression of megalin and cubilin was unchanged in Limp-2(-/-) mice, however, and the initial uptake of injected Alexa Fluor 555-conjugated bovine serum albumin (Alexa-BSA) was similar to wild-type mice, indicating that megalin/cubilin-dependent, receptor-mediated endocytosis was unaffected.
15 23572577 Receptor-mediated endocytosis, involving megalin and cubilin, mediates renal proximal-tubular reabsorption and is decreased in Dent disease because of mutations of the chloride/proton antiporter, chloride channel-5 (CLC-5), resulting in low-molecular-weight proteinuria, hypercalciuria, nephrolithiasis, and renal failure.
16 23572577 Receptor-mediated endocytic uptake of fluorescent albumin and transferrin in 30:insH and R637X ciPTECs was significantly decreased, compared with normal ciPTECs, and could be further reduced by competition with 10-fold excess of unlabeled albumin and transferrin, whereas in the del132-241 ciPTEC, receptor-mediated endocytic uptake was abolished.
