Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, and LDL/HDL ratio have been associated with new-onset diabetes; however, their cut-off levels have not been determined.

Non-cholesterol sterols are transported in plasma lipoproteins and are consequently important in cholesterol metabolism. We investigated the distribution of non-cholesterol sterol precursors of cholesterol synthesis (NCSPCS), oxysterols, and phytosterols

HDL and cholesterol handling in the brain [PDF]
Cholesterol is an essential component of both the peripheral nervous system and central nervous system (CNS) of mammals. Brain cholesterol is synthesized in situ by astrocytes and oligodendrocytes and is almost completely isolated from other pools of cholesterol in the body, but a small fraction can be taken up from the circulation as 27 ...

Selective delipidation of plasma HDL enhances reverse cholesterol transport in vivo
Uptake of cholesterol from peripheral cells by nascent small HDL circulating in plasma is necessary to prevent atherosclerosis. This process, termed reverse cholesterol transport, produces larger cholesterol-rich HDL that transfers its cholesterol to the

Hepatic lipase stimulates the uptake of high density lipoprotein cholesterol by hepatoma cells.
The objective of this study was to determine whether high density lipoproteins (HDL) that have been treated with hepatic lipase have an enhanced ability to deliver cholesterol to cells.

Recently, we showed that holo HDL particle uptake and resecretion occur in physiologically relevant cell lines and that HDL uptake is mediated by scavenger receptor class B type I (SR-BI).

Paradoxical mortality differential of HDL cholesterol
High-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol has been known for ages to be cardio-protective due to its defensive action against genesis of atherosclerosis.

The High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Hypothesis Revisited
BACKGROUND: The strong inverse association of plasma levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) with coronary heart disease (CHD) found in human epidemiological studies led to the development of the ‘HDL-C hypothesis’, which posits that ...
