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

The Plasma Distribution of Non-cholesterol Sterol Precursors and Products of Cholesterol Synthesis and Phytosterols Depend on HDL Concentration

Frontiers in Nutrition, 2022
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

Cholesterol, HDL and Lymphatic Clearance of the Arterial Wall

, 2017
The lymphatic circulation as the pathway for reverse cholesterol transport (RCT) in the arterial wall was first described in 1981 [1]. In that article this route was clearly described “since HDL can transport cholesterol from tissue back to liver by way ...

Is a High HDL-Cholesterol Level Always Beneficial?

Biomedicines, 2021
The specific interest concerning HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) is related to its ability to uptake and return surplus cholesterol from peripheral tissues back to the liver and, therefore, to its role in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases, such as ...

Differential Effects of Lipid-lowering Drugs in Modulating Morphology of Cholesterol Particles. [PDF]

, 2017
Treatment of dyslipidemia patients with lipid-lowering drugs leads to a significant reduction in low-density lipoproteins (LDL) level and a low to moderate level of increase in high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol in plasma.

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.

Effect of a novel nutraceutical combination on serum lipoprotein functional profile and circulating PCSK9 [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: A beneficial effect on cardiovascular risk may be obtained by improving lipid-related serum lipoprotein functions such as high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC) and serum cholesterol loading capacity (CLC) and by ...

Effects of pitavastatin (LIVALO Tablet) on high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) in hypercholesterolemia.

Journal of atherosclerosis and thrombosis, 2009
BACKGROUND Low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is an important clinical risk factor for cardiovascular disease (CVD). Statins have been known to have a potent HDL-C-elevating effect in addition to low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C ...

Cholesterol efflux via HDL resecretion occurs when cholesterol transport out of the lysosome is impaireds⃞

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).
