Small LDL-Cholesterol is Superior to LDL-Cholesterol for Determining Severe Coronary Atherosclerosis

Journal of Atherosclerosis and Thrombosis, 2008
Recent evidence suggests that small dense low-density lipoprotein (sd-LDL) particles are more atherogenic than large-LDL in spite of their lower cholesterol content. This study aimed to determine whether sd-LDL-cholesterol (sd-LDL-C) is superior to LDL-C as a biomarker of coronary heart disease (CHD).LDL particle size determined by gradient gel ...

Plasma lipoprotein metabolism in transgenic mice overexpressing apolipoprotein E. Accelerated clearance of lipoproteins containing apolipoprotein B. [PDF]

, 1992
We have reported that transgenic mice overexpressing rat apo E shows marked reduction of plasma cholesterol and triglyceride levels due to the disappearance of VLDL and LDL.

Electrochemistry‐Based Assay for Monitoring of Adherent Macrophages and Foam Cells on Ab‐CD36 Modified Electrospun Nanofibers

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Here, for the first time, macrophages and foam cells' adhesions to the developed polystyrene/graphene oxide‐3‐aminopropyltriethoxysilane/Anti‐CD36 (PS@GAPTES@Ab‐CD36) electrospun nanofiber‐based biofunctional surface using electrochemical measurements and fluorescence imaging are examined.

Genetic associations between serum low LDL-cholesterol levels and variants in LDLR, APOB, PCSK9 and LDLRAP1 in African populations.

PLoS ONE, 2020
Non-communicable diseases, including cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), are increasing in African populations. High serum low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-cholesterol) levels are a known risk factor for CVDs in European populations, but the link ...

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

, 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 ...

Development and Validation of Machine Learning‐Based Marker for Early Detection and Prognosis Stratification of Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study constructs a stacked multimodal machine learning model for nonalcoholic fattly liver disease (NAFLD) by integrating genetic and clinical features, and synthesize an in‐silico quantitative marker (ISNLD) that enables personalized risk stratification for intrahepatic and extrahepatic outcomes of high‐risk individuals of NAFLD.

Cholesterol absorption and synthesis related to low density lipoprotein metabolism during varying cholesterol intake in men with different apoE phenotypes.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1992
The aim of the present study was, first, to investigate whether cholesterol (C) absorption, enhanced by cholesterol feeding, was related to synthesis of cholesterol, serum level of low density lipoprotein (LDL)-C, and receptor activity for 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]

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

DNA‐PKcs‐Driven YAP1 Phosphorylation and Nuclear Translocation: a Key Regulator of Ferroptosis in Hyperglycemia‐Induced Cardiac Dysfunction in Type 1 Diabetes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In the context of chronic hyperglycemia, a DDR is initiated, leading to the pathological activation of DNA‐PKcs in the diabetic heart. This activated DNA‐PKcs directly interacts with and phosphorylates YAP1 at Thr226, thereby increasing the nuclear expression of YAP1.
