Interleukin-6 blockade raises LDL via reduced catabolism rather than via increased synthesis: a cytokine-specific mechanism for cholesterol changes in rheumatoid arthritis [PDF]
, 2017 Objectives Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have reduced serum low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-c), which increases following therapeutic IL-6 blockade. We aimed to define the metabolic pathways underlying these lipid changes.

Effect of hypertension on low-density lipoprotein transport within a multi-layered arterial wall: modelling consistent with experiments [PDF]
arXiv, 2016 The influence of hypertension on low-density lipoproteins intake into the arterial wall is an important factor for understanding mechanisms of atherosclerosis. It has been experimentally observed that the increased pressure leads to the higher level of the LDL inside the wall.

The Effects of Temulawak extract and Yoghurt on HDL-LDL mice blood exposed waste cooking oil [PDF]
, 2015 Using cooking oil repeatedly in processing the fried foods can cause health problems, especially cholesterol metabolism that affect levels of HDL, LDL, triglycerides and total cholesterol blood that can cause blockage of blood vessels leading

Interfacial Tension and Surface Pressure of High Density Lipoprotein, Low Density Lipoprotein, and Related Lipid Droplets [PDF]
, 2012 Lipid droplets play a central role in energy storage and metabolism on a cellular scale. Their core is comprised of hydrophobic lipids covered by a surface region consisting of amphiphilic lipids and proteins.

Modelling the inflammatory process in atherosclerosis: a nonlinear renewal equation [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 We present here a population structured model to describe the dynamics of macrophage cells. The model involves the interactions between modified LDL, monocytes/macrophages, cytokines and foam cells. The key assumption is that the individual macrophage dynamics depends on the amount of lipoproteins it has internalized.

Occupational Physical Activity and Cardiovascular Risk Factors Profile in the Adult Population of the Southern Cone of Latin America: Results From the CESCAS I Study [PDF]
, 2018 OBJECTIVE: We explore the association between occupational physical activity (OPA) and cardiovascular risk factors in four cities of the Southern Cone. METHODS: Robust multivariable linear regression models were used to examine the associations. RESULTS:

Aqueous Bark Extract of Terminalia Arjuna Protects Against Cigarette Smoke-induced Alterations in Serum Lipid Profile of Albino Rats [PDF]
, 2019 The present study aimed to evaluate the protective effect of aqueous bark extract of Terminalia arjuna against cigarette smoke-induced changes in serum lipid profile of albino rats. The rats were divided into three groups.

Differences in GlycA and lipoprotein particle parameters may help distinguish acute kawasaki disease from other febrile illnesses in children. [PDF]
, 2016 BackgroundGlycosylation patterns of serum proteins, such as α1-acid glycoprotein, are modified during an acute phase reaction. The response of acute Kawasaki disease (KD) patients to IVIG treatment has been linked to sialic acid levels on native IgG ...
