Year | Group | HDL | Animal model | Key finding | Ref. |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
2018 | Chen | sHDL mimetic-T1317: composed of a 22-amino acid apoA-I-mimetic, DMPC and POPC | ApoE−/− mice | 1) Significantly promoted cholesterol efflux in macrophages compared to T1317 and sHDL NPs alone; 2) did not increase serum TG levels as sHDL NPs did; 3) reduced side effects in the liver; 4) significantly reduced plaque size compared to T1317 and sHDL NP treatment alone. | [98] |
2019 | Chiesa | TN-sHDL mimetic: composed of a trimeric form of human apoA-I expressed from Escherichia coli, POPC and DPPC | NZW | 1) Induced plaque stabilization and showed lower macrophage content in plaque compared to groups treated with placebo. | [99] |
2019 | White | 4F-POPC HDL mimetic: composed of apoA-I mimetic (4F) and POPC | N/A | 1) Showed better ability to ameliorate lipid-related disorders than nanodiscs composed of apoA-I and POPC; 2) demonstrated resistance to oxidative processes. | [100] |
2019 | Chiesa | TN-sHDL NPs: composed of trimeric apoA-I, POPC, and DPPC | NZW | 1) Stabilization and regression of atheroma were observed in the treatment group. | [101] |
2019 | Thaxton | LC HDL NPs: composed of apoA-I, DPPC, and PL4 or DNA-PL4core | N/A | 1) Closely mimic the human HDLs 2) Reduced NF-κB activity in LPS stimulated human monocytes. |
[102] |
2020 | Schwendeman | T1317-SHDL NPs: composed of POPC, DMPC, DPPC, apoA-I mimetic peptide 22A and T1317, | ApoE−/− mice | 1) Better inhibition of plaque formation compared to sHDL or T1317 in plaque existing mice. | [103] |
