The recent research on the impact that oxidative changes of biolipids could have in pathophysiology serves to explain how free radical-driven reactions not only are considered as mere toxicologic events, but also modulators of cell activity and function. Oxidatively modified low-density lipoproteins are known to affect various cellular processes by modulating various molecular pathways and signaling nuclear transcription, Among the lipid oxidation products detectable in ox-LDLs, and also in the atherosclerotic plaques, 4-hydroxynonenal has been widely investigated. This aldehyde was shown to upregulate AP-1 transcription factor, signaling through the MAP kinase pathway, with eventual nuclear localization and induction of a series of genes. Further, oxidation products of cholesterol and cholesterol esters, in ox-LDL are of similar interest, especially in relation to the pathogenesis of fibrosclerotic lesions of the arterial wall.
