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 ...

Safety and Efficacy of Bempedoic Acid to Reduce LDL Cholesterol

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2019
Background Short‐term studies have shown that bempedoic acid, an inhibitor of ATP citrate lyase, reduces levels of low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol.

Metabolomic Profiling of Statin Use and Genetic Inhibition of HMG-CoA Reductase [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background Statins are first-line therapy for cardiovascular disease prevention, but their systemic effects across lipoprotein subclasses, fatty acids, and circulating metabolites remain incompletely characterized.

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.

A Comparison of Two LDL Cholesterol Targets after Ischemic Stroke.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2019
BACKGROUND The use of intensive lipid-lowering therapy by means of statin medications is recommended after transient ischemic attack (TIA) and ischemic stroke of atherosclerotic origin.

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.

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

Coronary artery endothelial dysfunction is positively correlated with low density lipoprotein and inversely correlated with high density lipoprotein subclass particles measured by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
OBJECTIVE: The association between cholesterol and endothelial dysfunction remains controversial. We tested the hypothesis that lipoprotein subclasses are associated with coronary endothelial dysfunction.

Effects of inhibiting cholesterol absorption and synthesis on cholesterol and lipoprotein metabolism in hypercholesterolemic non-insulin-dependent diabetic men.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1996
Effectiveness of a simultaneous inhibition of cholesterol absorption and synthesis, caused by sitostanol ester margarine and pravastatin, was studied to control mild hypercholesterolemia in men with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) (n = 8).
