Selective delipidation of plasma HDL enhances reverse cholesterol transport in vivo
Journal of Lipid Research, 2009 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.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1983 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.

Journal of Lipid Research, 2007 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).

Genetic variants in lipid metabolism are independently associated with multiple features of the metabolic syndrome [PDF]
, 2011 Background Our objective was to find single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), within transcriptional pathways of glucose and lipid metabolism, which are related to multiple features of the metabolic syndrome (MetS).

Paradoxical mortality differential of HDL cholesterol
Asian Journal of Medical Sciences, 2023 High-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol has been known for ages to be cardio-protective due to its defensive action against genesis of atherosclerosis.

Biophysical characterization of reactions associated with reverse cholesterol transport [PDF]
, 2012 This thesis aimed at improving our understanding of reactions relevant in the reverse cholesterol transport (RCT). RCT facilitates cholesterol homeostasis and is the most important pathway involved in cardiovascular disease.

The High Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Hypothesis Revisited
Indonesian Biomedical Journal, 2018 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 ...

Apolipoprotein M promotes cholesterol uptake and efflux from mouse macrophages
FEBS Open Bio, 2021 Apolipoprotein M (ApoM) exhibits various anti‐atherosclerotic functions as a component of high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) particles. Scavenger receptor class B type I (SR‐BI) is a classic HDL receptor that mediates selective cholesterol uptake and ...

Large-Scale Candidate Gene Analysis of HDL Particle Features
, 2011 Background: HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) is an established marker of cardiovascular risk with significant genetic determination. However, HDL particles are not homogenous, and refined HDL phenotyping may improve insight into regulation of HDL metabolism.
