Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Lipoproteins carry lipids in blood. In addition to a classical role of lipoproteins as a carrier of cholesterol, lipoproteins, especially HDL, possess pleiotorpic effects, such as anti-apoptosis and anti-inflammatory properties. In this study, I elucidated that lysophospholipids, potent lipid mediators, exist on lipoproteins and that the metabolism of lipoproteins influenced on the dynamism and physiological properties of lysophospholipids, Moreover, I have demonstrated that lysophospholipids could be introduced into clinical laboratory medicien as a novel biomarer for pleiotropic effects of lipoproteins. These results sugest that lysophospholipids might make it possible to apply pleiotropic effects of lipoproteins to clinical practice.
