Antiatherosclerotic Effects of CSL112 Mediated by Enhanced Cholesterol Efflux Capacity. [PDF]
Approximately 12% of patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) experience a recurrent major adverse cardiovascular event within 1 year of their primary event, with most occurring within the first 90 days. Thus, there is a need for new therapeutic approaches that address this 90‐day post‐AMI high‐risk period.

Cholesterol Efflux Capacity as a Therapeutic Target [PDF]
HDL is the primary mediator of cholesterol mobilization from the periphery to the liver via reverse cholesterol transport (RCT). A critical first step in this process is the uptake of cholesterol from lipid-loaded macrophages by HDL, a function of HDL inversely associated with prevalent and incident cardiovascular disease.

Molecular Patterns of Extreme and Persistent Cholesterol Efflux Capacity. [PDF]
Objective: Cholesterol efflux capacity (CEC), the ability of extracellular acceptors to pick-up cholesterol from macrophages, is a clinically relevant cardiovascular biomarker. CEC is inversely associated with incident atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease events.

Cholesterol Efflux Capacity [PDF]
High-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels represent a robust and well-integrated biomarker of cardiovascular risk. The prevalence of low HDL-C is high and likely to increase in coming years in parallel with the epidemic of obesity and type 2 diabetes mellitus.

Independent Effects of Kidney Function and Cholesterol Efflux on Cardiovascular Mortality
Background: Impaired renal function is associated with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. In the general population, HDL-cholesterol is associated with cardiovascular events, which is not true in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).

Tweaking the cholesterol efflux capacity of reconstituted HDL [PDF]
Mechanisms to increase plasma high-density lipoprotein (HDL) or to promote egress of cholesterol from cholesterol-loaded cells (e.g., foam cells from atherosclerotic lesions) remain an important target to regress heart disease. Reconstituted HDL (rHDL) serves as a valuable vehicle to promote cellular cholesterol efflux in vitro and in vivo.

Impaired High‐Density Lipoprotein Function in Patients With Heart Failure
Background We recently showed that, in patients with heart failure, lower high‐density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol concentration was a strong predictor of death or hospitalization for heart failure.

Background. Para and perirenal fat is a fat pad surrounding the kidneys. Recent studies showed the association between para and perirenal fat and cardiovascular diseases including atherosclerosis and hypertension.

Background HDL is endowed with several metabolic, vascular, and immunoinflammatory protective functions. Among them, a key property is to promote reverse cholesterol transport from cells back to the liver.
