Atherosclerosis and liver inflammation induced by increased dietary cholesterol intake: a combined transcriptomics and metabolomics analysis (2007)

Kleemann, Robert, Verschuren, Lars, Van Erk, Marjan J, Nikolsky, Yuri, Cnubben, Nicole HP, Verheij, Elwin R, ...

Abstract Background Increased dietary cholesterol intake is associated with atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis development requires a lipid and an inflammatory component. It is unclear where and how...

Endocytosis of proteins by liver cells (1979)

Kooistra, Teake

This thesis deals with structural features determining endocytosisof some proteins by sinusoidal rat liver cells in vivo. An introduction shows that binding to the cell surface of endocytosing cells...

Functional Characterization of the Plasmodium falciparum and P. berghei Homologues of Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor▿

Augustijn, Kevin D., Kleemann, Robert, Thompson, Joanne, Kooistra, Teake, Crawford, Carina E., Reece, Sarah E., ...

Macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) is a mammalian cytokine that participates in innate and adaptive immune responses. Homologues of mammalian MIF have been discovered in parasite species...

Atherosclerosis and liver inflammation induced by increased dietary cholesterol intake: a combined transcriptomics and metabolomics analysis

Kleemann, Robert, Verschuren, Lars, Van Erk, Marjan J, Nikolsky, Yuri, Cnubben, Nicole HP, Verheij, Elwin R, ...

With increasing dietary cholesterol intake the liver switches from a mainly resilient to a predominantly inflammatory state, which is associated with early lesion formation.

Cytokines and atherosclerosis: a comprehensive review of studies in mice

Kleemann, Robert, Zadelaar, Susanne, Kooistra, Teake

In the past few years, inflammation has emerged as a major driving force of atherosclerotic lesion development. It is now well-established that from early lesion to vulnerable plaque formation,...
