Current Opinion in Lipidology, 2012
HDL cholesterol concentration is inversely correlated with cardiovascular disease and has a wide range of functions involved in many systems. The purpose of this review is to summarize HDL functionality, its relevance to atherosclerosis and factors affecting HDL functions.The contribution of HDL to reverse cholesterol transport may not be as great as ...

Plasma high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels are inversely associated with coronary artery disease risk in large epidemiologic studies. This rule, however, has many exceptions in individual patients, and evidence suggests that other facets of high-density lipoprotein particle biology not captured by measuring HDL-C levels are responsible ...

HDL concentration, lipid transfer to HDL, and HDL size in normolipidemic nonobese menopausal women
International Journal of Gynecology & Obstetrics, 2008AbstractObjectiveTo determine the impact of menopause on lipid transfer from donor lipoproteins to high‐density lipoproteins (HDLs)—a process that is related to the protective function of HDL—and the size of HDL particles.MethodPlasma from 22 premenopausal and 18 postmenopausal nonobese, normolipidemic women paired for age (40–50 years) was incubated ...

HDL and Inflammation in Atherosclerosis
Current Drug Targets - Immune, Endocrine & Metabolic Disorders, 2004Atherosclerotic vascular disease is among the most frequent causes of death worldwide. Current therapeutic strategies concentrate mainly on lowering of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and an impressive reduction in the risk for cardiovascular morbidity and mortality has been achieved.

HDL and atherosclerosis: Insights from inherited HDL disorders
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 2015Plasma high density lipoproteins (HDL) comprise a highly heterogeneous family of lipoprotein particles, differing in density, size, surface charge, and lipid and protein composition. Epidemiological studies have shown that plasma HDL level inversely correlates with atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.

HDL: To Treat or Not To Treat?
Current Atherosclerosis Reports, 2014Several studies have shown an inverse relationship between HDL cholesterol (HDL-C) levels and the risk of cardiovascular disease. Low HDL-C levels are commonly present in subjects with diabetes, metabolic syndrome, or obesity. These observations have suggested that increasing HDL concentrations might help in decreasing the cardiovascular disease risk ...

There is considerable inferential evidence that the high density lipoproteins (HDL) of mammalian plasma should have greater structural and functional heterogeneity than has been so far established. It is likely that at least transitory progenitors of HDL originating from hepatic and intestinal cells will differ from one another, perhaps forming ...

LDL and HDL Subfractions, Dysfunctional HDL: Treatment Options
Current Pharmaceutical Design, 2014Low-density lipoproteins (LDL) are considered as important risk factors for cardiovascular diseases (CVD), while highdensity lipoproteins (HDL) are well recognized for their putative role in reverse cholesterol transport and other atheroprotective functions.

Colesterol HDL bajo o hipofunción HDL
Medicina Clínica, 2012El colesterol unido a las lipoproteinas de alta densidad (cHDL) es un excelente factor de riesgo cardiovascular en la practica totalidad de las poblaciones estudiadas hasta la actualidad. En realidad, el cHDL es el mejor predictor de riesgo lipidico junto a la concentracion de colesterol no-HDL, y la alteracion lipidica mas frecuente en sujetos que ...
