probucol and Lecithin Cholesterol Acyltransferase Deficiency

probucol has been researched along with Lecithin Cholesterol Acyltransferase Deficiency in 3 studies

Probucol: A drug used to lower LDL and HDL cholesterol yet has little effect on serum-triglyceride or VLDL cholesterol. (From Martindale, The Extra Pharmacopoeia, 30th ed, p993).
probucol : A dithioketal that is propane-2,2-dithiol in which the hydrogens attached to both sulfur atoms are replaced by 3,5-di-tert-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl groups. An anticholesteremic drug with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, it is used to treat high levels of cholesterol in blood.

Lecithin Cholesterol Acyltransferase Deficiency: An autosomal recessive disorder of lipoprotein metabolism caused by mutation of LECITHIN CHOLESTEROL ACYLTRANSFERASE gene. It is characterized by low HDL-cholesterol levels, and the triad of CORNEAL OPACITIES; HEMOLYTIC ANEMIA; and PROTEINURIA with renal failure.

Research Excerpts

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Probucol is a controversial drug to inhibit ATP-binding cassette transporter A1 (ABCA1) and to exhibit some positive clinical effects such as regression of xanthomas."1.56Selective Correction of Genotype Yield by Probucol in HDL-Deficient Mice Propagation. ( Akita, N; Kobayashi, F; Tsujita, M; Yokota, T; Yokoyama, S, 2020)
"Therefore, LCAT deficiency impairs the former pathway, and the latter can be inhibited by probucol, which interferes with the apolipoprotein-cell interaction."1.31Effect of probucol in lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase-deficient mice: inhibition of 2 independent cellular cholesterol-releasing pathways in vivo. ( Fukutomi, T; Ito, S; Itoh, M; Okazaki, M; Tada, T; Tomimoto, S; Tsujita, M; Usui, S; Yokoyama, S, 2001)
