Existing and emerging therapies for the treatment of familial hypercholesterolemia
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), an autosomal dominant disorder of LDL metabolism that is characterized by elevated LDL-cholesterol, is commonly encountered in patients with atherosclerotic coronary heart disease.

Two Phase 3 Trials of Inclisiran in Patients with Elevated LDL Cholesterol.
BACKGROUND Inclisiran inhibits hepatic synthesis of proprotein convertase subtilisin-kexin type 9. Previous studies suggest that inclisiran might provide sustained reductions in low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol levels with infrequent dosing ...

Detection of quantitative trait loci affecting serum cholesterol, LDL, HDL, and triglyceride in pigs [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundSerum lipids are associated with many serious cardiovascular diseases and obesity problems. Many quantitative trait loci (QTL) have been reported in the pig mostly for performance traits but very few for the serum lipid traits. In contrast, remarkable numbers of QTL are mapped for serum lipids in humans and mice.

The rate of degradation of oxidatively modified low density lipoprotein (Ox-LDL) by human endothelial cells was similar to that of unmodified low density lipoprotein (LDL), and was approximately 2-fold greater than the rate of degradation of acetylated ...

The Relationship Between Childhood BMI and Adult Serum Cholesterol, LDL, and Ankle Brachial Index [PDF]
Effects of childhood overweight may persist into adulthood. We assessed the effect of childhood overweight on cardiovascular disease high risk factor levels in the same participants as adults, after controlling for adult body mass index (BMI) status.A subset of participants in an observational study (Heartwatch) were contacted approximately 26-27 years

Time Course of LDL Cholesterol Exposure and Cardiovascular Disease Event Risk.
BACKGROUND Incident cardiovascular disease (CVD) increases with increasing low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) concentration and exposure duration. Area under the LDL-C versus age curve is a possible risk parameter.
