Unexpected and Abnormally Low Hdl Cholesterol Levels on Combination Hypolipidemic Therapy [PDF]
In general, Indians have low HDL cholesterol levels. Fenofibrate, a drug widely used in the treatment of hypertriglyceridemia, usually also increases HDL cholesterol.

Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI) mediates the selective uptake of HDL cholesteryl esters (CEs) and facilitates the efflux of unesterified cholesterol. SR-BI expression in macrophages presumably plays a role in atherosclerosis.

Boundary lipids of the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor: spontaneous partitioning via coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulation [PDF]
Reconstituted nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) exhibit significant gain-of-function upon addition of cholesterol to reconstitution mixtures, and cholesterol affects organization of nAChRs within domain-forming membranes, but whether nAChR partitions to cholesterol-rich liquid-ordered ("raft" or $l_o$) domains or cholesterol-poor liquid ...

Plasma lipid profile, atherogenic and coronary risk indices in some residents of Abeokuta in south-western Nigeria [PDF]
The incidence of chronic degenerative diseases like stroke and myocardial infarction in African subpopulations is reported to be increasing. In view of the association between dyslipidemia and these chronic degenerative diseases, we investigated some ...

The main antiatherogenic function of HDL is to promote the efflux of cholesterol from peripheral cells and transport it to the liver for excretion in a process termed reverse cholesterol transport.

Blood lipoproteins shape the phenotype and lipid content of early atherosclerotic lesion macrophages: a dual-structured mathematical model [PDF]
Macrophages in atherosclerotic lesions exhibit a spectrum of behaviours or phenotypes. The phenotypic distribution of monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs), its correlation with MDM lipid content, and relation to blood lipoprotein densities are not well understood.

Profil Rasio Koleterol Ldl dan Hdl pada Pasien Stroke di Bagian Saraf RSUD Arifin Achmad Provinsi Riau Periode Januari Sampai Desember 2012 [PDF]
Dyslipidemia is one of an important stroke risk factor. This case would be strengthened if there are other risk factors for stroke. One form of dyslipidemia is high of LDL and HDL cholesterol ratio causes atherosclerosis. The purpose of this research was
