LRP1 as key receptor for the transfer of sterified cholesterol from very-low-density lipoproteins (VLDL) to ischaemic cardiac muscle

Abstract

[ES] La presente invención se refiere a nuevas moléculas con capacidad de modular uno de los mecanismos que conducen a la deposición masiva de colesterol en el cardiomiocito y/o en las células musculares lisas de pared vascular durante el infarto agudo de miocardio u otras situaciones clínicas que cursan con isquemia. Además la presente invención también demuestra que el bloqueo del LRP1 mediante distintos agetes: un vector de expresión recombinante, un RNAi, un anticuerpo, un siRNA, etc. previene la sobreacumulación del colesterol esterificado en los cardiomiocitos y/o en las células musculares lisas de pared vascular expuestos a isquemia. La presente invención se refiere también al uso de dichas moléculas en el tratamiento y/o prevención de las alteraciones en el metabolismo del calcio y el remodelado cardiaco asociados a isquemia.

[EN] The invention relates to novel molecules that can modulate one of the mechanisms leading to the massive deposition of cholesterol in the cardiomyocyte and/or in the smooth muscle cells of the vascular wall, during acute myocardial infarction or other clinical situations involving ischaemia. The invention also shows that the blockage of the LRP1 by means of certain agents including a recombinant expression vector, an RNAi, an antibody, an siRNA etc, prevents the overaccumulation of sterified cholesterol in the cardiomyocytes and/or in the smooth muscle cells of the vascular wall exposed to ischaemia. The invention also relates to the use of said molecules in the treatment and/or prevention of the changes in the metabolism of calcium and cardiac remodelling associated with ischaemia.
