Some cardiovascular complications in patients with chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease may be caused by structurally and functionally modified lipoproteins. Redox status (advanced oxidation protein products [AOPPs]), prooxidant–antioxidant balance, total protein sulfhydryl (SH-groups), and paraoxonase 1 (PON1) activity were assessed in 77 renal patients and 20 controls. Lipoproteins were isolated using ultracentrifugation. PON1, PON3, and pentraxin-3 concentration were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Dyslipidemia-Oxy-Inflammation (DOI) score was calculated as a sum of dyslipidemia, oxidative stress, and inflammation scores. The dyslipidemia score ( P < .001), oxy score ( P < .01), inflammation score (P < .001), and the DOI score ( P < .001) were higher in patient groups compared with controls. The very-low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) fraction contained the highest amount of AOPP ( P < .001) compared with other lipoprotein fractions in all groups. The low-density lipoprotein (LDL) fraction contained elevated AOPP in all groups compared with the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) fraction ( P < .001). Significant positive correlation was observed between AOPP in LDL fraction and DOI score (ρ = 0.510, P < .01). Dyslipidemia, oxidative stress, and inflammation play an interactive role in renal disease and are mutually associated with redox status in VLDL, LDL, and HDL lipoproteins in plasma of renal patients.

Hypothesis: Oxidized low density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL) has properties that profoundly affect cardiovascular function. We hypothesized that Ox-LDL is likely to be formed in the left ventricular blood (LVB) when the heart is subjected to ischemic conditions and the ejection fraction (EF) is low. We speculated whether “stagnation” of LDL in the LV could result in increased formation of Ox-LDL. Objective: We studied whether there is an increased level of Ox-LDL in the LVB as opposed to peripheral blood (PB), and whether its presence correlated with the EF. Also we examined whether a higher level of Ox-LDL negatively correlated with the activity of paraoxonase 1 (PON 1). Methods: Following the Institutional Review Board (IRB) approval, 62 HF patients were enrolled in the study. All patients underwent pre-operative transthoracic echocardiographic assessment of ventricular function. Left ventricular ejection fractions were determined using the Simpsons bi-plane technique. 2ml of LVB and 5ml of PB samples were taken before coronary artery bypass surgery, or a surgery with replacement of mitral, aortic or tricuspid valve. Blood level of Ox-LDL was determined by ELISA (Mercodia), and PON 1 activity was determined by the rate of conversion of its substrate p-nitrophenyl acetate into p-nitrophenol. Results: The result showed significant increase in Ox-LDL in LVB as compared to PB (p=0.032) in HF subjects even when EF was near normal. There was no significant increase in subjects with lower EF. In contrast, Ox-LDL levels increased in the PB of subjects with lower EF and reached those of LVB. We also noticed that there was a statistically significant negative correlation between EF and Ox-LDL levels in both LVB and PB (p < 0.05). The activity of PON1, an antioxidant enzyme that protects LDL from oxidation showed decreased levels both in LV blood as well as in PB with decreased EF. It was observed that there was a statistically significant difference in PON1 levels between LV and PB of subjects having EF>60% (p = 0.03). Conclusions: In conclusion the results suggest that there might be oxidative stress associated with LVB even when the EF is not compromised. In contrast, the increase in PB Ox-LDL with poor EF might suggest that the low blood flow to peripheral tissues and end organs also might contribute to increased oxidative stress. The results also might suggest that persistent oxidative stress could have affected the clearance mechanisms of Ox-LDL.

Abstract Background Atherosclerosis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disorder. The aim of our study was to explore the role of circular RNA (circRNA) transmembrane 7 superfamily member 3 (circTM7SF3) in AS progression. Methods Experiments were conducted using oxidized low-density lipoprotein (ox-LDL)-induced THP-1-derived macrophages and differentiated human monocyte-derived macrophages (hMDMs). Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) was used to detect the expression of circTM7SF3, its linear form TM7SF3, microRNA-206 (miR-206) and aspartyl (asparaginyl) β-hydroxylase (ASPH) messenger RNA (mRNA). Cell viability and apoptosis were examined by 3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay and flow cytometry. Cell inflammation was analyzed by measuring the production of tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) kits. Cell oxidative stress was assessed through analyzing the levels of oxidative stress markers using their corresponding commercial kits. Dual-luciferase reporter assay and RNA-pull down assay were used to confirm the interaction between miR-206 and circTM7SF3 or ASPH. The protein level of ASPH was examined by Western blot assay. Results CircTM7SF3 level was markedly increased in the serum samples of AS patients and ox-LDL-induced THP-1-derived macrophages compared with their matching counterparts. ox-LDL induced-damage in THP-1 cells was partly attenuated by the interference of circTM7SF3. MiR-206 was a downstream molecular target of circTM7SF3. Si-circTM7SF3-mediated effects in ox-LDL-induced THP-1-derived macrophages were partly ameliorated by the addition of anti-miR-206. MiR-206 directly interacted with ASPH mRNA. CircTM7SF3 silencing reduced the expression of ASPH partly through up-regulating miR-206 in THP-1-derived macrophages. ASPH overexpression partly counteracted the effects induced by miR-206 overexpression in ox-LDL-induced THP-1-derived macrophages. Conclusion CircTM7SF3 contributed to ox-LDL-induced injury in AS cell model through up-regulating the expression of ASPH via targeting miR-206.

Introduction and Aim: CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease) is a problem in health care spread all over the world with adverse consequences. CKD is associated with premature atherosclerosis and increased morbidity and mortality due to cardiovascular complications. Hypertriglyceridemia is a commonly seen lipid abnormality in CKD patients. PON-1 (Paraoxanase-1) is a glycoprotein synthesized in the liver and is released into the blood, where it links with HDL. This study was undertaken to find out the relation between PON-1 and HDL-C and its effect on atherosclerosis.  Materials and Methods: A total number of 123 subjects participated in the study. Serum was used for estimating the parameters such as serum total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), low-density lipoprotein (LDL), very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) by calculation, creatinine, urea in a fully automated analyzer BS300. Serum paraoxonase-1(PON) was estimated by spectrophotometric method. Results: The metabolic derangement was very evident in the CKD group with significantly higher creatinine, urea, and dyslipidemia, and abnormal paraoxonase activity being observed in the cases compared to controls.  Conclusion: This study suggests the need for assessing PON-1 activity, a measure of the antioxidant capacity of HDL-C which improves the predictive accuracy of atherosclerosis in CKD.

Abstract We produced 20 mouse monoclonal antibodies against human plasma low-density lipoprotein (LDL). Individually they failed to precipitate LDL in agarose gel by the double-immunodiffusion technique; collectively they did, or as few as two combined monoclonal antibodies could do so. To mimic polyclonal antibodies in determination of apolipoprotein B (apo B) by radial immunodiffusion, a combination of four particular monoclonal antibodies (clones A, B, C, and D) was necessary. We characterized these four clones with respect to temperature dependency, affinity, total binding to 125I-labeled LDL, and specificity to the different species of apolipoprotein B. Two monoclonal antibodies (B and C) bound 100% of 125I-labeled LDL; clones A and D bound 80% and 87%, respectively. All four clones bound maximally to LDL at 4 degrees C. The affinity constants for clones A, B, C, and D were 0.6, 2.1, 3.8, and 2.3 X 10(9) L/mol, respectively. By the Western blotting technique, the four monoclonal antibodies all reacted with the species B-100 and B-74 of apolipoprotein B, and to various degrees with B-48 and B-26. Radial immunodiffusion (chi) and direct enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (y) with a mixture of the four monoclonal antibodies gave almost identical results for 70 patients: y = 0.921 chi-2.58; r = 0.933.

A-F Betafood® is a whole food-based health product. The product contains phytonutrients and bioactives with antioxidant properties that may support gallbladder and liver function. Herein, we investigated the efficacy of A-F Betafood® on gallbladder and liver function. In this randomized, placebo-controlled, parallel study fifty overweight but otherwise healthy adults received A-F Betafood® or placebo for 12 weeks. Gallbladder function as assessed by gallbladder volume, ejection fraction (GBEF), ejection rate, wall thickness and liver function determined via aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, and gamma-glutamyltransferase, and high-sensitivity c-reactive protein analysis at baseline and week 12 were the primary outcomes. Total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, triglycerides, and oxidative stress markers including oxidized low-density lipoprotein, tumor necrosis factor-α, adiponectin and malonyldialdehyde (MDA) were assessed as secondary outcomes. A-F Betafood®-supplementation significantly reduced gallbladder wall thickness (p = 0.049) by 9% compared to placebo from baseline to week 12. The A-F Betafood® group alone had significant improvements in gallbladder volume (32%; p = 0.044) and GBEF (19%; p = 0.047) at week 12. There were no changes in liver function, oxidative stress markers or blood lipid concentrations, though MDA concentrations decreased in both groups. Our findings demonstrate A-F Betafood®-supplementation significantly improves measures of gallbladder function and support healthy gallbladder function in the individuals with gall bladder condition.
