ABSTRACT Major depression and suicide are critical public health concerns, particularly in underrepresented populations with unique genetic and sociocultural contexts. The Maya‐mestizo population presents the highest suicide rates in the country but remains understudied in psychiatric genetics. This study evaluated the association between three genetic

Effect of a high intake of conjugated linoleic acid on lipoprotein levels in healthy human subjects [PDF]
Background -Trans fatty acids are produced either by industrial hydrogenation or by biohydrogenation in the rumens of cows and sheep. Industrial trans fatty acids lower high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, raise low-density lipoprotein (LDL ...

A high‐fat diet with vitamin D and propylthiouracil produces a pro‐atherogenic phenotype in rats
Male Sprague–Dawley rats received a cholesterol‐rich high‐fat diet supplemented with vitamin D and propylthiouracil for 11 weeks. The model induced dyslipidemia (increased total cholesterol/low‐density lipoprotein, decreased triglycerides), inflammation (increased interleukin‐6 and serum amyloid A), hypercalcemia, and reduced circulating endothelial ...

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 ...

Phosphatidylinositol promotes cholesterol transport and excretion
Administration of phosphatidylinositol (PI) to New Zealand white rabbits increases HDL negative charge and stimulates reverse cholesterol transport. Intravenously administered PI (10 mg/kg) associated almost exclusively with the HDL fraction in rabbits ...

Efficacy of pitavastatin on HDL-cholesterol
Epidemiological studies have shown that low HDL predicts cardiovascular risk just as much as elevated LDL cholesterol levels. However, today we know that HDL functionality is more important than HDL levels. As a group effect, statins increase HDL levels. They are also thought to increase functional HDL.

An increased plasma cholesterol concentration is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. However, individuals vary largely in their response to cholesterol lowering drugs and 40% of them, do not reach their cholesterol-lowering target.
