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

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 ...

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 ...

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]
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]
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]
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.
