Significance Feedback control of cholesterol metabolism is essential for cell viability and prevention of heart attacks. Cells acquire cholesterol from receptor-mediated uptake of low-density lipoprotein, which delivers cholesterol to lysosomes. To exert

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

Cardiovascular outcomes and LDL-cholesterol levels in EMPA-REG OUTCOME
Objective: It is well established that higher low-density lipoprotein (LDL)-cholesterol levels are associated with increased cardiovascular risk. We analyzed whether effects of empagliflozin on cardiovascular outcomes varied by different LDL-cholesterol ...

In silico and in vitro exploration of a tyrosinase for biocatalytic production of catechols
Tyrosinase from Ralstonia pseudosolanacearum is a promising biocatalyst for producing valuable catechols from monophenol substrates. This tyrosinase is uniquely suited to this due to its high monophenolase : diphenolase ratio. We combined in silico docking and in vivo kinetic characterisation of this tyrosinase with 11 industrially relevant monophenols,

Pathophysiology of elevated ascites fluid cholesterol in malignant ascites [PDF]
The existence of marked elevations of ascitic fluid cholesterol has been observed in patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis compared to patients with cirrhosis and has been found useful in differential diagnosis.

Sertraline Treatment Can Mimic Niemann‐Pick Type C Biomarker Profile: A Diagnostic Pitfall
ABSTRACT Background Oxysterols (cholestane‐3β,5α,6β‐triol and 7‐ketocholesterol) and N‐palmitoyl‐O‐phosphocholineserine (PPCS) are sensitive biomarkers for Niemann‐Pick disease type C (NPC) screening. However, false‐positive results occur, with a biomarker profile suggestive of NPC despite the absence of pathogenic variants in genes involved in NPC or ...

Quantitation of the in vitro free cholesterol exchange of human red cells and lipoproteins
The exchange of free cholesterol in vitro between human red blood cells and low density lipoproteins (LDL) was quantified. The flux of sterol between LDL and red cells was relatively constant over a wide range of concentrations of free cholesterol in ...

A Comparison of Two LDL Cholesterol Targets after Ischemic Stroke.
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.
