Deficiency of neutral cholesterol ester hydrolase 1 (NCEH1) impairs endothelial function in diet-induced diabetic mice.
Title: Deficiency of neutral cholesterol ester hydrolase 1 (NCEH1) impairs endothelial function in diet-induced diabetic mice.
These results suggest that Nceh1 plays a dominant role over Lipe in the hydrolysis of CE and subsequent cholesterol efflux in MPMs
Title: Critical role of neutral cholesteryl ester hydrolase 1 in cholesteryl ester hydrolysis in murine macrophages.
reducing the cholesteryl ester content of foam cells, Nceh1 may protect against the pro-apoptotic effect of oxysterols and modulate the development of atherosclerosis.
Title: Absence of Nceh1 augments 25-hydroxycholesterol-induced ER stress and apoptosis in macrophages.
Gender difference of atherogenesis is partly accounted for activation of neutral cholesterol ester hydrolase through estrogen-dependent translocation of A-kinase type II in macrophages.
Title: Estrogen-dependent activation of neutral cholesterol ester hydrolase underlying gender difference of atherogenesis in apoE-/- mice.
Nceh1 is involved in the adrenal cholesterol metabolism, and the cholesterol ester hydrolytic activity in adrenal glands is associated with the organ enlargement.
Title: Abrogation of neutral cholesterol ester hydrolytic activity causes adrenal enlargement.
NCEH is targeted to the ER of macrophages, where it hydrolyzes CE to deliver cholesterol for efflux out of the cells.
Title: Targeting of neutral cholesterol ester hydrolase to the endoplasmic reticulum via its N-terminal sequence.
Genetic ablation of Nceh1 promotes foam cell formation and the development of atherosclerosis in mice.
Title: Ablation of neutral cholesterol ester hydrolase 1 accelerates atherosclerosis.
NCEH is responsible for a major part of nCEH activity in macrophages and may be a potential therapeutic target for the prevention of atherosclerosis.
Title: Identification of neutral cholesterol ester hydrolase, a key enzyme removing cholesterol from macrophages.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
