Looking Beyond LDL-Cholesterol - A Study on Extended Lipid Profile in Indian Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome [PDF]

Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2019
Introduction: Assessment of dyslipidemia with only Total Cholesterol (TC), Triglyceride (TGL), Low- and High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol (LDL-C, HDL-C) levels, Standard Lipid Profile (SLP), leads to under-estimation of dyslipidemia as a risk factor ...

Unresolved excess accumulation of myelin-derived cholesterol contributes to scar formation after spinal cord injury [PDF]

arXiv, 2022
Background: Spinal cord injury triggers complex pathological cascades, resulting in destructive tissue damage and incomplete tissue repair. Scar formation is generally considered as a barrier for regeneration in central nervous system (CNS), while the intrinsic mechanism of scar-forming after spinal cord injury has not been completed deciphered ...

Metabolic Consequences of Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) may have metabolic disruption, which can contribute to adverse long‐term outcomes, for multiple reasons. Patients with RA appear to have a higher risk of sarcopenia, type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus, metabolic syndrome, and hypertension. Systemic inflammation in RA can cause a “lipid paradox,” with reduced low‐

Alzheimer Disease is Associated with Isotropic Ocular Enlargement [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Recent studies have documented ocular changes in dementia patients, especially Alzheimer Disease (AD). In this study, we explored the change of eye size and eye shape in dementia, including AD patients. The eyeball volume and diameters were estimated via T1-weighted brain magnetic resonance (MR) images in the OASIS-3 database which included 83 AD, 247 ...

Assessment of causal association between differentiated thyroid cancer and disordered serum lipid profile: a Mendelian randomization study

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2023
BackgroundResearch has shown that the disordered serum lipid profile may be associated with the risk of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). Whether this association reflect causal effect is still unclear.

C2238/αANP modulates apolipoprotein E through Egr-1/miR199a in vascular smooth muscle cells in vitro [PDF]

, 2015
Subjects carrying the T2238C ANP gene variant have a higher risk to suffer a stroke or myocardial infarction. The mechanisms through which T2238C/αANP exerts detrimental vascular effects need to be fully clarified.

Bioprinted Micro‐Clots for Kinetic Analysis of Endothelial Cell‐Mediated Fibrinolysis

Advanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 7, March 14, 2025.
This paper describes the development of a microscale model that quantifies the breakdown of fibrin by endothelial cells. The small size scale of this engineered system enables fibrin breakdown to be observed without the addition of external activators. This system could help in identifying compounds which both promote and hinder thrombosis.

TNF receptor–related factor 3 inactivation promotes the development of intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma through NF‐κB‐inducing kinase–mediated hepatocyte transdifferentiation

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Background and Aims Intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC) is a deadly but poorly understood disease, and its treatment options are very limited. The aim of this study was to identify the molecular drivers of ICC and search for therapeutic targets.

APOE polymorphism and its effect on plasma C-reactive protein levels in a large general population sample [PDF]

, 2010
The literature on association between apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene variations and plasma levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) remains inconsistent, mainly due to low statistical power of previous studies.
