Multi-ancestry study of blood lipid levels identifies four loci interacting with physical activity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Many genetic loci affect circulating lipid levels, but it remains unknown whether lifestyle factors, such as physical activity, modify these genetic effects.

Causal relevance of blood lipid fractions in the development of carotid atherosclerosis: Mendelian randomization analysis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
BACKGROUND: Carotid intima-media thickness (CIMT), a subclinical measure of atherosclerosis, is associated with risk of coronary heart disease events. Statins reduce progression of CIMT and coronary heart disease risk in proportion to the reduction in ...

Beyond PEGylation: Archaeal Lipids for Long‐Circulating Liposomes

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Archaeal lipid‐based liposomes, particularly those containing caldarchaeol (GDGT), were found to significantly prolong the circulation time of vancomycin in rats, matching the pharmacokinetic properties of PEGylated systems. These findings suggest archaeal lipids as promising non‐PEG excipients for parenteral applications to minimize drug clearance ...

High‐Density Lipoprotein Particle Concentration and Size Predict Incident Coronary Artery Disease Events in a Cohort With Type 1 Diabetes

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background The cholesterol efflux capacity of high density lipoprotein (HDL) is negatively associated with cardiovascular risk. Small HDL particles account almost quantitatively for cholesterol efflux capacity, perhaps mediated through efflux of ...

Anacetrapib promotes reverse cholesterol transport and bulk cholesterol excretion in Syrian golden hamsters

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2011
Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) transfers cholesteryl ester (CE) and triglyceride between HDL and apoB-containing lipoproteins. Anacetrapib (ANA), a reversible inhibitor of CETP, raises HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) and lowers LDL cholesterol in ...

Relationship of the parameters of body cholesterol metabolism with plasma levels of HDL cholesterol and the major HDL apoproteins.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1985
The inverse relationship between plasma levels of high density lipoprotein (HDL) and coronary heart disease rates has suggested that HDL might influence body stores of cholesterol.

High density lipoproteins and reverse cholesterol transport [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The e>:periments described in this thesis were performed in order to clarify the mechanism of efflux of cellular cholesterol, a key step in reverse cholesterol transport.

Anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties of HDLs are impaired in type 2 diabetes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
ObjectiveIn mice, 4F, an apolipoprotein A-I mimetic peptide that restores HDL function, prevents diabetes-induced atherosclerosis. We sought to determine whether HDL function is impaired in type 2 diabetic (T2D) patients and whether 4F treatment improves

Relationship Between Physical Conditioning and Plasma High Density Lipoprotein-Cholesterol Concentration [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
Five subjects (three females and two males) took part in an exercise regimen in order to determine if aerobic exercise results in an increase in high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol levels (HDL-C) in the plasma.
