The effect of oligomeric procyanidins on endothelial function and cholesterol homeostasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
PhDOligomeric procyanidins (OPC) are naturally occurring dietary substances, which studies suggest can protect against cardiovascular disease. To explore this further a double-blind randomised controlled crossover trial, EPICURE (Evaluation of high ...

Arginine-directed glycation and decreased HDL plasma concentration and functionality [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Background/Objectives: Decreased plasma concentration of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) is a risk factor linked to increased risk of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Decreased anti-atherogenic properties of HDL are also implicated in increased

Effects of dalcetrapib in patients with a recent acute coronary syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In observational analyses, higher levels of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol have been associated with a lower risk of coronary heart disease events.

Large-Scale Candidate Gene Analysis of HDL Particle Features [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background: HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) is an established marker of cardiovascular risk with significant genetic determination. However, HDL particles are not homogenous, and refined HDL phenotyping may improve insight into regulation of HDL metabolism.

Effect of animal and industrial trans fatty acids on HDL and LDL cholesterol levels in humans - a quantitative review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
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 HDL cholesterol, raise LDL cholesterol, and increase the risk of coronary heart ...

Dyslipidemia and 10-year diabetes incidence in Japanese people: Population-based Panasonic cohort study 9

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2022
Low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol, and LDL/HDL ratio have been associated with new-onset diabetes; however, their cut-off levels have not been determined.

Loci controlling plasma non-HDL and HDL cholesterol levels in a C57BL /6J × CASA /Rk intercross

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2003
Plasma non-HDL and HDL cholesterol levels are predictors of cardiovascular diseases. We carried out a genetic cross between two laboratory inbred mouse strains, C57BL/6J and CASA/Rk, to detect loci that control the plasma levels of non-HDL and HDL ...

The Plasma Distribution of Non-cholesterol Sterol Precursors and Products of Cholesterol Synthesis and Phytosterols Depend on HDL Concentration

open access: yesFrontiers in Nutrition, 2022
Non-cholesterol sterols are transported in plasma lipoproteins and are consequently important in cholesterol metabolism. We investigated the distribution of non-cholesterol sterol precursors of cholesterol synthesis (NCSPCS), oxysterols, and phytosterols

The cholesterol-raising diterpenes from coffee beans increase serum lipid transfer protein activity levels in humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Cafestol and kahweol–diterpenes present in unfiltered coffee— strongly raise serum VLDL and LDL cholesterol and slightly reduce HDL cholesterol in humans. The mechanism of action is unknown.
