Apolipoprotein composition of HDL in cholesteryl ester transfer protein deficiency
Our purpose was to compare HDL subpopulations, as determined by nondenaturing two-dimensional gel electrophoresis followed by immunoblotting for apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I), apoA-II, apoA-IV, apoCs, and apoE in heterozygous, compound heterozygous, and ...

Beyond PEG: Emerging Polymer Lipid Alternatives for Lipid Nanoparticle (LNP) Formulations
This review discusses recent advances in PEG‐alternative LNP designs, including non‐PEG polymers, zwitterionic lipids, and polypeptides. It evaluates how surface‐engineering chemistry influences LNP formation and biological behavior, and highlights current limitations and opportunities of PEG‐alternative LNPs.

A novel explanation for the reduced LDL cholesterol in severe hypertriglyceridemia.
When [3H]cholesteryl ester-labeled low density (LDL) and intermediate density lipoproteins (IDL) from a normotriglyceridemic, hypercholesterolemic rabbit were injected into severely hypertriglyceridemic, hypercholesterolemic rabbits, 60% of the label ...

Abstract Saturated fats (SFAs) play a complex role in health; therefore, their intake has been a topic of debate in the field of nutrition science. Therefore, this article emphasizes the importance of a balanced diet rather than SFA, considering genetic and metabolic differences, and advocates for the reconsideration of dietary guidelines based on the ...

Cholesteryl ester transfer protein expression attenuates atherosclerosis in ovariectomized mice
Reduced estrogen levels result in loss of protection from coronary heart disease in postmenopausal women. Enhanced and diminished atherosclerosis have been associated with plasma levels of cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP); however, little is ...

The LDL‐C/ApoB ratio, a marker of LDL size, showed significant prognostic value in statin‐treated CAD patients depending on diabetes status. A higher ratio was linked to lower cardiovascular risk only in patients with type 2 diabetes, suggesting it may be a superior biomarker for risk stratification beyond conventional lipids in this high‐risk group ...

Fenofibrate increases HDL-cholesterol by reducing cholesteryl ester transfer protein expression
In addition to efficiently decreasing VLDL-triglycerides (TGs), fenofibrate increases HDL-cholesterol levels in humans. We investigated whether the fenofibrate-induced increase in HDL-cholesterol is dependent on the expression of the cholesteryl ester ...

Urotensin II receptor deletion mitigates high‐fat diet‐induced kidney injury and renal lipid remodeling. Male wild‐type (WT) and urotensin II receptor–knockout (UT KO) mice were fed a high‐fat diet (HFD; 60% kcal from fat) for 33 weeks. In cultured mouse podocytes, urotensin II (UII)–UT signaling enhanced transient receptor potential canonical 6 (TRPC6)

Decreased PLTP mass but elevated PLTP activity linked to insulin resistance in HTG
Hypertriglyceridemia (HTG) is associated with insulin resistance, increased cholesteryl ester transfer (CET), and low HDL cholesterol. Phospholipid transfer protein (PLTP) may be involved in these relationships.
