Core Tip	This original manuscript investigates the effect of high homocysteine (Hcy) levels on apoE expression, and the signaling pathways involved in this gene re-gulation. Our novel findings show that high doses of Hcy decrease apolipoprotein E (apoE) expression. We revealed that this regulation involves nuclear factor kappa B activation, via MAPK/ERK kinase. The Hcy-mediated decrease of apoE expression in peripheral tissues may aggravate atherosclerosis, neurodegenerative diseases and renal dysfunctions. Thus, the current manuscript may be of interest for scientists working in the field of cardiovascular disease and related inflammatory disorders.
