Oxidation of apolipoprotein A-I by myeloperoxidase impairs the initial interactions with ABCA1 required for signaling and cholesterol exportBaohai Shao
Division of Metabolism, Endocrinology and Nutrition, Department of Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, WA 98195, USA
J Lipid Res 51:1849-58. 2010..Therefore, oxidation of apoA-I in the artery wall by MPO-generated chlorinating intermediates may contribute to atherogenesis by impairing cholesterol efflux from macrophages...
Obesity and weight loss result in increased adipose tissue ABCG1 expression in db/db miceKimberly A Edgel
Department of Medicine, Division of Metabolism, Endocrinology and Nutrition, and the Diabetes and Obesity Center of Excellence, University of Washington, Seattle, WA 98109, USA

Center for Research in Reproduction and Contraception, Department of Medicine, University of Washington School of Medicine, Seattle, WA, USA
J Lipid Res 53:1376-83. 2012..These effects appear independent of testosterone conversion to dihydrotestosterone. Further research is needed to determine how changes in HDL protein content affect CVD risk in men...

Deparment of Medicine, Diabetes and Obesity Center of Excellence, University of Washington, Seattle, WA 98195 8055, USA
Biochim Biophys Acta 1821:522-9. 2012..This article is part of a Special Issue entitled Advances in High Density Lipoprotein Formation and Metabolism: A Tribute to John F. Oram (1945-2010)...
Phospholipid transfer protein interacts with and stabilizes ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 and enhances cholesterol efflux from cellsJohn F Oram
Department of Medicine, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98195 6426, USA
J Biol Chem 278:52379-85. 2003..Thus, PLTP mimics apolipoproteins in removing cellular lipids by the ABCA1 pathway, except that PLTP acts more as an intermediary in the transfer of cellular lipids to lipoprotein particles...
