Influence of an atherogenic diet on the structure of swine low density lipoproteins

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1980
Five groups of three swine each were fed a basal diet supplemented with 15% tallow and either 0.0, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0%, or 2.5% cholesterol. The animals were studied over a period of 9 weeks to observe changes in plasma lipids and low density lipoproteins ...

Deep-coverage whole genome sequences and blood lipids among 16,324 individuals. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Large-scale deep-coverage whole-genome sequencing (WGS) is now feasible and offers potential advantages for locus discovery. We perform WGS in 16,324 participants from four ancestries at mean depth >29X and analyze genotypes with four quantitative ...

Addressing dyslipidemic risk beyond LDL-cholesterol [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2022
Despite the success of LDL-lowering drugs in reducing cardiovascular disease (CVD), there remains a large burden of residual disease due in part to persistent dyslipidemia characterized by elevated levels of triglyceride-rich lipoproteins (TRLs) and reduced levels of HDL.

Interaction of aging and dietary fat in the regulation of low density lipoprotein transport in the hamster.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1989
These studies were undertaken to examine the effect of aging on low density lipoprotein (LDL) metabolism in the male hamster. When the hamsters were maintained on a low-cholesterol, low-triglyceride diet, rates of LDL transport in the various tissues of ...

Fenofibrate treatment increases human serum proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 levels

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2010
Over the past several years, proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9) has gained significant attention as a key regulator of serum LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) levels.

FoxO3 transcription factor and Sirt6 deacetylase regulate LDL-cholesterol homeostasis via control of the proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (Pcsk9) gene expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Elevated LDL-cholesterol is a risk factor for the development of cardiovascular disease. Thus, proper control of LDL-cholesterol homeostasis is critical for organismal health.

Cellular cholesterol efflux and cholesterol loading capacity of serum: effects of LDL-apheresis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2012
High LDL-cholesterol (LDL-C) characterizes familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) and familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCH). LDL-apheresis, used in these patients to reduce LDL-C levels, has been shown to also affect HDL levels and composition.

Ezetimibe therapy: mechanism of action and clinical update. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The lowering of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) is the primary target of therapy in the primary and secondary prevention of cardiovascular events.

Interleukin-6 blockade raises LDL via reduced catabolism rather than via increased synthesis: a cytokine-specific mechanism for cholesterol changes in rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Objectives Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have reduced serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c), which increases following therapeutic IL-6 blockade. We aimed to define the metabolic pathways underlying these lipid changes.

Biochemical and cytotoxic characteristics of an in vivo circulating oxidized low density lipoprotein (LDL-).

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1994
Using ion exchange high pressure liquid chromatography, total plasma low density lipoprotein (LDL) from 30 hypercholesterolemic and 10 normocholesterolemic cynomolgus monkeys was subfractionated into unmodified LDL (n-LDL) and more negatively charged LDL
