Genetics of Dyslipidemia

open access: yesArquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2016
Lipoproteins constitute a set of proteins and lipids, organized to facilitate the transport of lipids through blood plasma. Elevated or decreased levels of these lipoproteins may be related to genetic alterations in 40% to 60% of cases.1 This fact explains why it is common to find lipid abnormalities in several members of the same family.

Atherogenic dyslipidemia

open access: yesIndian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2013
Atherogenic dyslipidemia (AD) refers to elevated levels of triglycerides (TG) and small-dense low-density lipoprotein and low levels of high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C). In addition, elevated levels of large TG rich very low-density lipoproteins, apolipoprotein B and oxidised low-density lipoprotein (LDL), and reduced ...
