Sex-specific association between carotid atherosclerosis and fundus arteriosclerosis in a Chinese population: a retrospective cross-sectional study

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Medical Research, 2023
Objectives Vascular stiffening is highly predictive of major adverse cardiovascular events. It is not clear whether microangiopathy, such as fundus arteriosclerosis, is related to carotid atherosclerosis. Hence, this study was designed to investigate the

Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α polymorphisms and postprandial lipemia in healthy men

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2007
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα) is a ligand-dependent transcription factor that plays a key role in lipid and glucose homeostasis. This study evaluated whether variants of PPARα are associated with postprandial lipemia. Subjects were

ALDH2 rs671 and MTHFR rs1801133 polymorphisms are risk factors for arteriosclerosis in multiple arteries

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2023
Background Arteriosclerosis in multiple arteries has long been associated with heightened cardiovascular risk. Acetaldehyde dehydrogenase 2 (ALDH2) and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) play an important role in the pathogenesis of ...

The HIV protease inhibitor ritonavir increases lipoprotein production and has no effect on lipoprotein clearance in mice

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2002
This study examined the effect of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) protease inhibitor therapy on lipoprotein production and catabolism in vivo. The HIV protease inhibitor ritonavir was given to C57BL/6 mice fed either a basal low-fat diet or a Western ...

Statin's role on blood pressure levels: Meta‐analysis based on randomized controlled trials

open access: yesThe Journal of Clinical Hypertension, 2023
Statins have been proven to be effective in minimizing the risk of cardiovascular adverse events, however, their effect on BP variability is debatable with respect to their significance and their use as a potential anti‐hypertensive.

Differential expression of ACAT1 and ACAT2 among cells within liver, intestine, kidney, and adrenal of nonhuman primates

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2000
Two closely related enzymes with more than 50% sequence identity have been identified that catalyze the esterification of cholesterol using acyl-CoA substrates, namely acyl-CoA:cholesterol acyltransferase 1 (ACAT1) and ACAT2.

Thin-layer electrophoresis of serum lipoproteins

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1966
A method is described for semiquantitative study of serum lipoproteins, with particular reference to the very low density fractions involved in transport of triglycerides. Serum samples were subjected to electrophoresis in thin layers of starch granules;

ACAT2 contributes cholesteryl esters to newly secreted VLDL, whereas LCAT adds cholesteryl ester to LDL in mice

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
The relative contributions of ACAT2 and LCAT to the cholesteryl ester (CE) content of VLDL and LDL were measured. ACAT2 deficiency led to a significant decrease in the percentage of CE (37.2 ± 2.1% vs.

ARTERIOSCLEROSIS. [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Medical Association, 1908
The subject of arteriosclerosis has received much attention of late, both in its pathologic and in its clinical aspects. There has been a growing tendency to attribute symptoms, particularly nervous symptoms, to this condition. In a person offering almost any syndrome of symptoms referable to the nervous system, the mere presence of sclerotic arteries
