Plasma cholesterol homeostasis, HDL remodeling and function during the acute phase reaction[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2017
Acute phase reaction (APR) is a systemic inflammation triggered by several conditions associated with lipid profile alterations. We evaluated whether APR also associates with changes in cholesterol synthesis and absorption, HDL structure, composition ...

Could Lowering Phytosterol Absorption as Part of Lipid-Lowering Therapy Have a Beneficial Effect on Residual Risk?

open access: yesMetabolites, 2023
Plant sterols are molecules that are structurally similar to cholesterol and provided only as dietary sources (e.g., vegetables, fruits, nuts, cereals) since they cannot be synthesized by humans.

Phytosterol ester processing in the small intestine: impact on cholesterol availability for absorption and chylomicron cholesterol incorporation in healthy humans[S]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2011
Phytosterols (plant sterols and stanols) can lower intestinal cholesterol absorption, but the complex dynamics of the lipid digestion process in the presence of phytosterol esters (PEs) are not fully understood.

Sterol Metabolism in Ovariectomized Rats: Potential Roles of Campesterol and 4β-Hydroxycholesterol in Osteoporosis. [PDF]

open access: yesLipids
ABSTRACT Osteoporosis is characterized by low bone mass and microarchitectural deterioration of bone tissue. Lipid metabolism disorders may contribute to osteoporosis in postmenopausal women. Phytosterols and oxysterols (OC) are involved in lipid metabolism.

Efficiency of intestinal cholesterol absorption in humans is not related to apoE phenotype

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2003
The present study investigated the role of apolipoprotein E (apoE) phenotype on intestinal cholesterol absorption and cholesterol synthesis. Studies were carried out in eight subjects homozygous for the apoE4 and 12 subjects homozygous for the E2 allele (

Plasma levels of plant sterols and the risk of coronary artery disease: the prospective EPIC-Norfolk Population Study

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2007
Some studies have suggested that a modest increase of plant sterol levels is a risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD). We studied the relationship between plant sterol levels and CAD risk in a prospective nested case-control study consisting of ...

Phytosterol plasma concentrations and coronary heart disease in the prospective Spanish EPIC cohort

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2010
Phytosterol intake with natural foods, a measure of healthy dietary choices, increases plasma levels, but increased plasma phytosterols are believed to be a coronary heart disease (CHD) risk factor.
