Apolipoprotein E (apoE) is one of the major transporters of cholesterol in the body and is essential for maintaining various neural functions in the brain. Given that hypercholesterolemia is a risk factor in Alzheimer's disease (AD), it has been sugg

Steroidogenic acute regulatory protein (StAR) is a 30-kDa protein involved in the transport of cholesterol to the inner mitochondrial membrane and thus plays a key role in steroid biosynthesis. To clarify the implications of this protein in neuroster

Mammalian NADPH-ferredoxin reductase (EC 1.18.1.2) functions in the mitochondrial electron transport chain for cytochrome P-450-dependent steroid hydroxylation. Significant homology of three-dimensional structure exists in the surroundings of FAD bet

A water-soluble iron complex with N-dithiocarboxysarcosine (Fe-DTCS) has been developed as an ESR spin-trapping agent for NO and successfully applied to ESR imaging of endogenous NO production in mice. We attempted to measure NO produced by purified

Benzo(a)pyrene, a well-known procarcinogen, is believed to be activated by microsomal cytochrome P-450 1A1 (CYP 1A1). We recently reported that rat CYP 1A1 induced by 3-methylcholanthrene (3-MC) catalyzed the conversion of retinal to retinoic acid. I

The rate of the non-directional transfer of cholesteryl ester and triglyceride by human cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) was measured between human plasma lipoproteins by monitoring fluorescence spectrum of pyrene-labeled lipid. The transfer

The effects of an immunosuppressive agent, tacrolimus (FK-506), on the activities of cytochrome P-450-linked monooxygenase systems with respect to three cytochrome P-450 isozymes in rat liver microsomes were investigated. FK-506 non-competitively inh

An inducible cytochrome P-450 (P-450) catalyzing retinoic acid synthesis was purified from liver microsomes of 3-methylcholanthrene (3-MC)-treated rats, based on the activity of all-trans-retinoic acid formation from all-trans-retinal. We previously

The rabbit cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) was expressed in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris by introducing the CETP cDNA under the control of the methanol-inducible alcohol oxidase promoter. The cDNA was cloned from in vitro amplif

Function of apolipoprotein (apo) A-IV was studied for its role in cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP; lipid transfer protein, LTP) reaction between lipid microemulsions having the diameter of low density lipoprotein, being compared to apoA-I. C
