Abstract
Parkinson’s disease (PD), the second most common neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimer’s disease, commonly occurs in the elderly population, causing a significant medical and economic burden to the aging society worldwide. At present, there are few effective methods that achieve satisfactory clinical results in the treatment of PD. Platelet-derived growth factors (PDGFs) and platelet-derived growth factor receptors (PDGFRs) are important neurotrophic factors that are expressed in various cell types. Their unique structures allow for specific binding that can effectively regulate vital functions in the nervous system. In this review, we summarized the possible mechanisms by which PDGFs/PDGFRs regulate the occurrence and development of PD by affecting oxidative stress, mitochondrial function, protein folding and aggregation, Ca2+ homeostasis, and cell neuroinflammation. These modes of action mainly depend on the type and distribution of PDGFs in different nerve cells. We also summarized the possible clinical applications and prospects for PDGF in the treatment of PD, especially in genetic treatment. Recent advances have shown that PDGFs have contradictory roles within the central nervous system (CNS). Although they exert neuroprotective effects through multiple pathways, they are also associated with the disruption of the blood–brain barrier (BBB). Our recommendations based on our findings include further investigation of the contradictory neurotrophic and neurotoxic effects of the PDGFs acting on the CNS.

Abstract
Esterification of cholesterol is a universal mechanism to store and transport large quantities of cholesterol between organs and tissues and to avoid toxicity of the excess of cellular cholesterol. Intended for transport and storage and thus to be inert, cholesteryl esters (CEs) reside in hydrophobic cores of circulating lipoproteins and intracellular lipid droplets. However, the inert identity of CEs is dramatically changed if cholesterol is esterified to a polyunsaturated fatty acid and subjected to oxidative modification. Post-synthetic, or epilipidomic, oxidative modifications of CEs are mediated by specialized enzymes, chief among them are lipoxygenases, and by free radical oxidation. The complex repertoire of oxidized CE (OxCE) products exhibit various, context-dependent biological activities, surveyed in this review. Oxidized fatty acyl chains in OxCE can be hydrolyzed and re-esterified, thus seeding oxidized moieties into phospholipids (PLs), with OxPLs having different from OxCEs biological activities. Technological advances in mass spectrometry and the development of new anti-OxCE antibodies make it possible to validate the presence and quantify the levels of OxCEs in human atherosclerotic lesions and plasma. The article discusses the prospects of measuring OxCE levels in plasma as a novel biomarker assay to evaluate risk of developing cardiovascular disease and efficacy of treatment.

Abstract
The oxidation hypothesis of atherosclerosis proposes that oxidized LDL is a major causative factor in the development of atherosclerosis. Although this hypothesis has received strong mechanistic support and many animal studies demonstrated profound atheroprotective effects of antioxidants, which reduce LDL oxidation, the results of human clinical trials with antioxidants were mainly negative, except in selected groups of patients with clearly increased systemic oxidative stress. We propose that even if reducing lipoprotein oxidation in humans might be difficult to achieve, deeper understanding of mechanisms by which oxidized LDL promotes atherosclerosis and targeting these specific mechanisms will offer novel approaches to treatment of cardiovascular disease. In this review article, we focus on oxidized cholesteryl esters (OxCE), which are a major component of minimally and extensively oxidized LDL and of human atherosclerotic lesions. OxCE and OxCE-protein covalent adducts induce profound biological effects. Among these effects, OxCE activate macrophages via toll-like receptor-4 (TLR4) and spleen tyrosine kinase and induce macropinocytosis resulting in lipid accumulation, generation of reactive oxygen species and secretion of inflammatory cytokines. Specific inhibition of OxCE-induced TLR4 activation, as well as blocking other inflammatory effects of OxCE, may offer novel treatments of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular disease. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled: Lipid modification and lipid peroxidation products in innate immunity and inflammation edited by Christoph J. Binder.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated in and around vascular endothelium may play a role in normal cellular signaling mechanisms but may also be an important causative factor in endothelial dysfunction underlying the development of atherosclerosis, diabetes complications, and ischemia-reperfusion injury. ROS influence a variety of molecular and cellular activities, including changes in the cellular localization of regulatory factors, protein modification, and altered gene expression, which in turn influence cellular phenotype. One mechanism by which ROS exert their cellular effects involves their ability to modulate the expression and function of vascular genes, such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), fibroblast growth factor (FGF), and platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF), which play key atherogenic roles by their regulation of cell growth, differentiation, and fibroproliferative responsiveness. In this review the authors describe the changes induced by oxidative stress on the profile of growth factor gene expression in endothelial cells, and the impact these modifications have on endothelial phenotype as well as on the behavior of neighboring vascular smooth muscle cells and fibroblasts. The authors also discuss the involvement of redox-sensitive transcription factors in these regulatory processes.

Abstract
Autoimmune vascular inflammation and oxidative stress (lipid peroxidation) are common in systemic autoimmune diseases and contribute to the oxidative modification of low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) and oxLDL/beta2GPI complex formation. Circulating oxLDL/beta2GPI complexes have been detected in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). The presence of antibodies to oxLDL/beta2GPI complexes indicates that these complexes are immunogenic, and the coexistence of complexes and antibodies has pointed to an active proatherogenic role in the development of autoimmune vascular complications. Immunohistochemical staining of atherosclerotic lesions suggest that these complexes are formed in the arterial wall and released into circulation. The in vitro macrophage uptake of oxLDL/beta2GPI complexes was significantly increased in the presence of antiphospholipid antibodies, either beta2GPI-dependent anticardiolipin or anti-beta2GPI antibodies, suggesting that macrophage Fcgamma receptors are involved in lipid intracellular influx and foam cell formation. These findings provide an explanation for the accelerated development of atherosclerosis seen in SLE and APS. The presence of circulating oxLDL/beta2GPI complexes and IgG antibodies to these complexes indicate significant vascular injury and oxidative stress as well as an active role in autoimmune-mediated atherothrombosis.

Abstract
Oxidative modification of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) has been implicated in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. During the oxidation of LDL, cholesteryl esters, the major lipid components in LDL, are oxidized to cholesteryl ester hydroperoxides (CEOOH). The isomers of CEOOH may reflect the reactive species that initiate the peroxidation reaction. In the current study, a novel analytical method for the determination of CEOOH isomers, especially cholesteryl linoleate hydroperoxide isomers, was developed using the combination of two chromatographic techniques: (i) thin-layer chromatography blotting with diphenyl-1-pyrenylphosphine (DPPP) fluorescent detection (DPPP-TLC blotting) and (ii) gas chromatography-electron ionization-mass spectrometry (GC-EI-MS). CEOOH was applied to DPPP-TLC blotting, the obtained DPPP-derived fluorescent spots containing cholesteryl ester hydroxides were extracted and derivatized (hydrogenation, transmethylation, and trimethylsilylation), and the formed methyl ester/trimethylsilylether derivatives of hydroxyoctadecenoic acid were then analyzed by GC-EI-MS. The CEOOH isomers were determined by selected ion monitoring of isomer-specific fragment ions originated from the alpha-cleavage of the trimethylsilyloxyl group. Using these two chromatographic techniques, we were able to detect isomeric CEOOH in the oxidized human LDL. Our results indicated that GC-EI-MS analysis combined with DPPP-TLC blot is a specific method for analyzing cholesteryl ester hydroperoxide isomers in biological samples such as oxidized LDL.

Abstract
Increased cardiovascular morbidity and mortality due to the pre-mature or accelerated development of atherosclerosis has been reported in patients with systemic autoimmune diseases such as systemic lupus erythematosus. These findings motivated a great deal of research into the role of autoimmunity in atherogenesis. The relationship between atherosclerosis and cholesterol metabolism to atherosclerosis has been well established. However, the participation of newer inflammatory and immunologic mechanisms are emerging as relevant factors for the initiation and progression of atherosclerotic lesions.

Abstract
Beta2-Glycoprotein I (beta2-GPI) is a major antigen for antiphospholipid antibodies present in patients with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). In 1997, we demonstrated that beta2-GPI specifically binds to Cu2+-oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) and that the beta2-GPI-oxLDL complex is subsequently targeted by anti-beta2-GPI antibodies in vitro. Then ligands for beta2-GPI were purified from oxLDL and characterized as omega-carboxylated 7-ketocholesteryl esters, such as 7-ketocholesteryl-9-carboxynonanoate (oxLig-1) and 7-ketocholesteryl-12-carboxy (keto) dodecanoate (oxLig-2). These ligands mediate to form oxLDL-beta2-GPI complexes, and the complexes are taken up avidly by macrophages via anti-beta2-GPI autoantibody-mediated phagocytosis. We recently demonstrated that appearance of autoantibodies against a complex of beta2-GPI and oxLig-1 are highly associated with a history of arterial thrombosis. Serum oxLDL-beta2-GPI complex and their IgG immune complexes are also risk factors arterial thrombosis in APS patients. There is increasing circumstantial evidence of autoimmune mechanism involving beta2-GPI and oxLDL in the atherogenesis in APS.

Abstract
Lipid oxidation products are formed at sites of increased oxidant stress and have been shown to accumulate in atherosclerotic lesions. Although recent studies have focused on the formation and metabolism of oxidized lipids, very little is known about their biological activities and possible (patho)physiological functions. Oxidation of cholesteryl esters containing unsaturated fatty acids leads to the formation of hydroperoxides that are either reduced to alcohols or degrade into biologically active "core-aldehydes". In this review, the mechanisms of formation and metabolic fate of oxidized cholesteryl esters, their occurrence, as well as possible biological activities are discussed. Based on the current knowledge, cholesteryl ester oxidation leads to the formation of biologically active substances, which could actively contribute to the progression of atherosclerotic lesions and their resulting complications.

Abstract
Beta2-glycoprotein I (beta2-GPI) is a major antigen for antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) present in patients with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). Oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) is subsequently targeted by beta2-GPI and anti-beta2-GPI autoantibodies. Ligands specific for beta2-GPI derived from oxLDL have been characterized as oxidized forms of cholesteryl linoleate, such as 7-ketocholesterol-9-carboxynonanoate, i.e. 9-oxo-9-(7-ketocholest-5-en-3beta-yloxy) nonanoic acid, (namely oxLig-1). The in vitro phenomenon that it is significantly increased in binding of oxLig-1 containing liposomes to macrophages via an interaction with beta2-GPI and an anti-beta2-GPI autoantibody (via the Fcgamma receptor) may propose a novel mechanism on 'autoantibody-mediated atherosclerosis'. Furthermore, autoantibodies against a complex of beta2-GPI and oxLig-1 are detected in sera of APS patients and appearance of the antibodies is associated with episodes of thrombosis, especially, arterial thrombosis. Thus, autoimmune atherogenesis linked to beta2-GPI interaction with oxLDL and autoantibodies may be present in APS.

Abstract
Autoxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids and esters leads to a complex mixture containing hydroperoxides and cyclic peroxides. Prostaglandin bicyclic endoperoxides have been detected from the autoxidation of cholesteryl arachidonate by LC-MS and GC-MS techniques. All four possible types (I-IV) of bicyclic endoperoxides have been found starting from different regioisomeric hydroperoxides of cholesteryl arachidonate. Furthermore, the stereochemistry of Type IV bicyclic endoperoxides has been determined by conversion to pentafluorobenzyl (PFB) ester, trimethylsilyl (TMS) derivatives, and comparison with synthetic standards by the use of GC-MS. All eight possible diastereomers of the derivatized isoprostanes were observed and were separated by gas chromatography. The bicyclic endoperoxides with the two alkyl chains syn on the cyclopentane ring were formed preferentially to those with anti configuration, a result anticipated from earlier work. Substantial amounts of the anti-substituted isoprostanes, including PGF(2)(alpha), were, however, observed in the product mixture.

Abstract
beta 2-Glycoprotein I (beta 2-GPI) is a major antigen for antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) present in patients with antiphospholipid syndrome (APS). We previously reported that beta 2-GPI specifically binds to oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL). Further, a ligand specific for beta 2-GPI, oxLig-1, purified from the extracted lipids of oxLDL was identified as 7-ketocholesterol-9-carboxynonanoate (i.e., 9-oxo-9-(7-ketocholest-5-en-3 beta-yloxy) nonanoic acid) OxLig-1 was recognized by beta 2-GPI and subsequently by anti-beta 2-GPI autoantibodies. Binding of liposomes containing oxLig-1 to macrophages were significantly enhanced in the presence of both beta 2-GPI and an anti-beta 2-GPI autoantibody derived from (NZW x BXSB) F1 mouse, an animal APS model, or from APS patients. Anti-beta 2-GPI autoantibodies derived from APS patients with episodes of arterial thrombosis were detected in ELISA, using a solid phase beta 2-GPI complex with oxLig-1. It was also reported that LDL-receptor-deficient mice that were fed a chow diet and immunized with beta 2-GPI had an accelerated atherosclerosis and that beta 2-GPI was abundantly expressed within subendothelial regions and intimal-medial borders of human atherosclerotic plaques. All of these observations strongly suggest that autoimmune atherogenesis linked to beta 2-GPI interaction with oxLDL and autoantibodies may be present in APS.

Abstract
Peroxynitrite-mediated oxidation may be an important physiological mechanism for oxidation of low density lipoprotein (LDL), however, the molecular basis for the interaction of peroxynitrite oxidized LDL (OxLDL) with scavenger receptors such as CD36, has not been characterized. In this study, we compared the biochemical characteristics and receptor binding of LDL that was oxidized using: (1) Cu2+, a standard method of oxidizing LDL in vitro; and (2) 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1), a source of peroxynitrite. Both methods of oxidation caused an increase in electrophoretic migration of LDL, but greater mobility was observed with Cu2+-OxLDL. In addition, greater fragmentation of apolipoprotein B was observed following Cu2+ oxidation than after SIN-1 oxidation. The levels of lipid peroxides and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances were similar after 20 h of oxidation by both methods, although the time-course was distinct. Cu2+ and SIN-1-OxLDL bound specifically to the macrophage scavenger receptor CD36 with high affinity. Binding of the 20 h SIN-1 treated LDL to CD36 was comparable to a 4 h Cu2+ modified LDL. The binding of Cu2+ and SIN-1-OxLDL to CD36 was similar under different biochemical conditions and modifications of the receptor, suggesting that OxLDL particles, generated by either method, bind to the same domain of CD36. The results demonstrate that SIN-1 produced an oxidized LDL particle that binds specifically to CD36 and suggests that peroxynitrite OxLDL may represent a more physiologically relevant model than Cu2+-OxLDL for studying the interactions of OxLDL with cells and lipoprotein receptors in vitro.

Abstract
15 lipoxygenase (15LO) is a lipid-oxidizing enzyme that is considered to contribute to the formation of oxidized lipids in atherosclerotic lesions. Monocyte-macrophages are the key cells that express 15LO in atherosclerotic lesions. In this review, we examine the evidence for 15LO involvement in atherogenesis and explore and evaluate the potential mechanisms whereby 15LO may contribute to the oxidation of LDL by monocyte-macrophages. We also describe several possible pro- versus anti-atherogenic functions that may be mediated by various products of 15LO lipid oxidation. Central pathways involved in regulating 15LO expression and activity that may serve as future targets for intervention and regulation of this enzyme are also reviewed.

Abstract
Genes induced or suppressed by oxidized low-density lipoproteins (oxLDL) in human monocytic THP-1 cells were searched using differential display reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reactions (DDRT-PCR). Among the many differentially expressed cDNA fragments, one was dramatically stimulated by the oxLDL in a steady state level, which was later found to contain sequences corresponding to ferritin light chain (L-ferritin) in a sequence homology search. The stimulatory effect of the oxLDL on the level of L-ferritin mRNA in the THP-1 cells was both time- and dose-dependent. When the cells were allowed to differentiate in the presence of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), the differentiated cells were generally less responsive to the oxLDL than the undifferentiated ones. An increase of L-ferritin mRNA was observed when the cells were treated with the lipid components in the oxLDL such as 9-HODE, 13-HODE, and 25-hydroxycholesterol. In addition, a stimulation of the L-ferritin gene expression was also observed when the cells were treated with an endogenous peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) ligand, 15d-PGJ2, in a time- and dose-dependent manner. These results suggest that oxLDL or its constituents are related to the stimulation of L-ferritin expression via PPARgamma.
